Thousands of Spanish farmers marched through the streets of Madrid on the weekend to protest the low prices they have been receiving for their produce.

Stopping traffic through major city streets, the farmers held placards claiming they were being forced into financial hard times.

The farmers and their supporters came from across the country to insist that prices should be held steady as costs had risen 34 percent in the past months, leading to the loss of 124,000 jobs.

The framers demanded the government guarantee the minimum prices paid for their products by commercial middlemen and limits on price rises for fuel, fertilisers and pesticides.
