Demarcated region of green wine. Harvest taking place increasingly early

RTP Notícias30 August 2026 at 14:40

The demarcated region of green wine faces significant changes in harvest patterns, which occur increasingly early. This trend is not exclusive to this region, being also observed in other wine-producing areas.

The advancement of the harvest date is related to climate changes affecting the ripening cycle of grapes. Weather conditions have caused changes in traditional agricultural calendars.

Green wine production continues to be an important economic activity in the demarcated region, which covers several sub-regions of Minho. However, the necessary adaptations to respond to these changes represent challenges for local producers.

War for 'black gold': these two countries created a 'maritime bridge' to transport oil through the Strait of Hormuz

Kuwait and Qatar created a "maritime bridge" in the Gulf of Oman to continue exporting oil through the Strait of Hormuz, despite the war with Iran that began in February. The solution involves ship-to-ship transfers outside the most dangerous zone, reducing the exposure of large tankers to attacks. Six months after the start of the conflict, the two countries managed to recover to about 70% of their pre-war export volumes, with daily flow almost doubling since July, from four to seven to eight million barrels per day. This recovery is helping to contain the rise in Brent crude, which fell from 120 dollars per barrel in April to the current 87-90 dollars. However, risks remain high, as demonstrated by the attack on a Kuwaiti supertanker in August. Portugal, which depends on crude imports, may feel the effects of new disruptions in fuel prices.
