According to ANSA, the 7 March protest outside the Lower House is being staged to highlight the "unsustainable" situation many farmers say them find themselves in.
"The last bastion of an area injured by the earthquake is at risk," said Coldiretti.
"A quality agricultural, livestock economy can only be saved if the reconstruction goes hand in hand with getting back to work."
