A series of protests took place in Peru, initially in the department of Ica, beginning November 30, 2020, by farmers who reported being victims of mistreatment and poor working conditions.

The workers requested the repeal of the Agrarian Promotion Law, whose validity had been extended the previous year, in the Government of President Martín Vizcarra, until December 31, 2031.

The protesters were heard by the Council of Ministers, who in conversations with Congress, after several days approved Bill No.

On December 21, a day after the parliamentarians in the Congress of the Republic failed to reach an agreement to approve the new agrarian law, the protesters took up the blockade of the Panamericana Sur highway.

Since the restart of the strike, twelve deaths have been registered, all in the department of La Libertad.
