LATEST: Where are tractors blocking roads in Spain on Tuesday?

Spain's tractor protests continue into another week, with traffic and disruption on motorways across the country on Tuesday. This comes as hundreds of tractors set off in the direction of Madrid from around Spain.

Wednesday is expected to be a particularly disrupted day as farmers will take their tractors into the capital along Calle de Alfonso XIII until they reach the Ministry of Agriculture building, on Paseo de la Infanta Isabel, at around 2pm. Traffic is expected to be affected throughout the day on Wednesday as there will be blockages when the tractors arrive in the city and then again when they leave.

Farmers plan to maintain their street protests for at least the rest of February, according to the updated schedules of different agricultural groups and organisations.

As such, tractor demonstrations and traffic disruptions will go on throughout the rest of the month, though it is worth noting that the 6-F platform, the group organising many of the protests, is not formally aligned with trade unions, who have called their own protests and walkouts. Smaller, local agricultural groups could also stage their own demonstrations.

Spanish press outlets including La Sexta are reporting this morning that up to 500 tractors are setting off toward Madrid today, from regions as far away as Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha, Andalusia and Castilla y León.
