In Kadirli district of Osmaniye, peanut producers protested, stating that they could not sell their products at a fair price despite rising fuel and input costs. Producers said that the price per kilogram had fallen to 50-60 lira, adding, "We are operating at a loss, but we are working just to cover the cost of fuel," and expressed concern that peanut planting might decrease next season.
