Moment French farmers use tractors to spray hordes of squatters with manure

THIS is the moment raging French farmers spray hordes of squatters with manure in a bid to expel them from their land.

Furious workers spread the faeces over their farm in Hautes-Vosges, France after reportedly “not receiving” any help from police to remove an “illegal gypsy camp”.

Members of the community are pictured rushing to stop the tractors

Footage shows the tractors circling the stationary white caravans and releasing streams of the brown sludge liquid.

Meanwhile, members of the community appear running after the vehicles in a bid to stop the onslaught of excrement.

One man is even captured jumping onto a moving tractor and frantically knocking on the driver’s window.

In the minute-long video, some six tractors are seen covering the land in the stinking slurry – a mixture of manure and water.

Last year, a similar tactic was adopted by Brit farmer Jack Bellamy when he caught a camper on his land.

Shocking footage shows angry Jack Bellamy spot the tent and say: “I tell you what, these ***** will set up anywhere.”

He then jumps in his tractor and drives up alongside the trespasser unleashing a  15-second blast of slurry .

The  campe r, dressed in a red top and a white sun hat, is seen desperately trying to zip up his tent before diving behind it as a wall of excrement is showered on him.

Jack, 29, is heard saying: “I’ll tell you what chap, have a bit of this.”

The hapless  cyclist  is seen cowering for shelter as his entire tent and bike are covered in the brown stuff.

Furious farmer caught a camper sleeping in his field and covered him in slurry

Jack, a third generation farmer from  Tavistock, Devon , last night told The Sun: “I left him there covered in slurry.

“He never said a word.

“He couldn’t really argue with that.

“They come up from the towns and think they can do what they want.”

The beef and sheep  farmer  said he was annoyed because he’s had trouble from trespassers before and there are two campsites just half a mile away from his field.

He added: “He just didn’t want to pay.”

Jack said he spotted the camper as he started work in his John Deere tractor at 6am on Tuesday.

He said: “I went out in the morning because I had to get on.

“When I looked in the field I saw a tent on the freshly cut grass.

“There was someone camped right up against the hedge.

“I’m sure he had a nice evening there, but he didn’t have a very nice wake up call.

“He must’ve heard the tractor coming because he was out of his tent.”
