Did you not see how far the protesting farmers went? It wasn't just blocking, I'm pretty sure some of them took equipment and actually started destroying roads leading into the cities. And that was in protest of attempting to legislate that shit. What exactly are people expecting to happen if they do it underhandedly rather than up front?
If the farmers turn around and go home now, it will be much harder to organize protests on this scale again. The regime was not ready for it this time. They will be the second time.
Don't be so blackballed. Sri Lanka's government was literally overthrown over this issue. We aren't talking about some small issue here. Fertilizer is one of the most important things for a farmer. This is literally a life or death issue.
If they pushed this through anyway the farmer would have nothing to lose.
The Sri Lankans forced their President to resign and leave the country. He was immediately replaced by his Prime Minister who cracked down on the protesters and continued all of the power rationing and other policies that had triggered the protests to begin with.

Nothing to lose, but no guns to fight with.
