Penela launches plan to "save" beekeeping and attract young producers

Notícias de Coimbra6 September 2026 at 12:38

Penela's Municipal Council is preparing a set of support measures for the municipality's beekeepers, at a time when the sector faces difficulties. The plan aims not only to support current producers but also to attract young people to beekeeping activity.

The municipality recognizes the importance of beekeeping for the region and intends to implement measures that can boost the sector. The initiative arises as a response to the challenges faced by local beekeepers.

Among the objectives of the plan is the enhancement of honey production and the sustainability of beekeeping activity in Penela. The local authorities thus intend to preserve an important tradition for the community.

Work but Receive Little? You May Be Entitled to Social Security Support Even with a Salary

Having a job and receiving a salary does not automatically exclude access to the Social Integration Income (RSI), as long as the household income remains below the legal limits. Social Security considers only 80% of dependent work income when calculating the benefit, which may be only 50% during the first 12 months of a new professional activity. The RSI reference value was updated to 247.56 euros in 2026, with maximum amounts varying according to family composition. In addition to income, there are also limits on financial assets (maximum of 60 times the IAS, or 32,227.80 euros in 2026). The application can be made online or in person. From 31 December 2026, the RSI will be replaced by the Single Social Payment (PSU), which will include a gradual reduction mechanism for support as professional income increases.
