Farmers protesting in Berlin

Today as part of the Green Week Berlin, I have been to one of the greatest protest, the farmers protest against genetically-modified agriculture.
I could see very creative people with magnificent banners, clothes, etc.  I loved it, woke up late but in 20 minutes I was surrounded by thousands of people who were energetic, up and yelling, dancing.
I found it hard to buy food afterwards...
