Tractors block a highway during a farmers' protest in northeastern Spain this week.
  • European farmers have blocked roads and sprayed government buildings with manure in recent weeks.
  • They're rallying against the European Union's "Green Deal" and soaring inflation.
  • Protests have broken out in several countries across Europe.

Europe's farmers aren't happy — and they're using tractors, tires and manure to show it.

In recent weeks they've been taking to the streets over a string of grievances, including the European Union's efforts to go climate-neutral and high inflation that's pushed up their costs.
