Government announces 12 million euros to support winegrowers who cannot sell their grapes in the Douro

Diário de Viseu4 September 2026 at 19:00

The Portuguese government announced support of 12 million euros for winegrowers in the Douro region who cannot sell their grape production this campaign. This measure comes as a response to the difficulties faced by the wine sector in the region.

The support will be specifically aimed at producers who cannot place on the market the grapes they produced during this campaign. The objective is to mitigate the financial losses of these farmers given the impossibility of selling their production.

In parallel, the executive is preparing the creation of a permanent fund to structurally address the recurring difficulties of the wine sector. This long-term initiative aims to prevent similar situations in the future and guarantee greater stability for Douro producers.

Ibama authorizes Petrobras to expand activities in the Foz do Amazonas Basin

Ibama authorized on Thursday (4) Petrobras to expand drilling activities in the Foz do Amazonas Basin, on the Equatorial Margin. The operating license for block FZA-M-59 was amended to allow the drilling of three new wells off the coast of Amapá — Manga, PAD Morpho and Crotalus — completing the project originally planned in 2021, which called for up to four wells in the region. The decision, signed by the president of the environmental agency, Jair Schmitt, represents the full release of the state company's plan, after Ibama had granted in October 2025 only the license for the first Morpho well, keeping the others under review.
