Brazilian farmers that hold Paraguayan citizenship gather for an assembly along the country's main international highway where they parked their tractors during a protest to demand more security and work from the government, in Hernandarias 35 kms (22 miles) west of the Brazil and Paraguay border, December 15, 2008. Farmers in 10 of Paraguay's 17 provinces initiated a two-day protest as a rural crisis deepens with the illegal occupation of large farms by peasants demanding their own land for subsistence farming. The banner reads, "Paraguay in Peace." REUTERS/Jorge Adorno (PARAGUAY)
