The ongoing agricultural protests in Greece concluded with an outcome that appears to be a compromise, though the issues surrounding the agricultural sector remain unresolved. Farmers engaged in weeks-long road blockades faced a government that weathered the pressure and maintained its stance. In recent discussions, a majority of farmers reluctantly accepted the realities imposed upon them, suggesting that social tensions may not have escalated as initially feared.

The New Democracy party is likely to face the wrath of unhappy farmers in future elections, as the present resolution may not fully appease those who took to the streets. Even though the immediate issue regarding protests has been set aside, a related matter concerning OPEKEPE - the payments agency for agricultural financing - continues to loom over the government. Investigations reveal mismanagement of public funds and potential fines that are likely to fall upon taxpayers, indicating ongoing financial concerns associated with agricultural management.

In response, the government has proposed establishing a bipartisan parliamentary committee aimed at examining these ongoing agricultural challenges. This initiative reflects an intent to prioritize and address the needs of the primary sector amid modern challenges, although it remains to be seen if practical solutions will emerge from these discussions or if they will merely serve as a political gesture to pacify agricultural concerns in the short term.
