Brusseles -- Dairy farmers in Brussels lit fires in the streets and hurled eggs to protest low milk prices, during an emergency meeting of Europe's agriculture ministers.
Farmers used cattle and tractors to blockade city streets and dumped milk to signify the prices they received did not justify shipping the product to processors, The New York Times reported.
While farmers have protested low prices for months, the anger overflowed Tuesday after the emergency meeting failed to come up with a solution beyond setting up a committee to study the dairy industry, the Times said.
