"Wine sector faces crisis across the Country". CAP demands support for all wine-producing regions and not just the Douro

SAPO Notícias10 September 2026 at 11:49

The Portuguese wine sector faces a crisis that affects the entire country, according to the Confederation of Portuguese Farmers (CAP). The organization argues that support measures for the sector should cover all wine-producing regions and not just the Douro.

CAP, through its representative Luís Mira, considered that "in an adverse context that affects everyone, the public response must be fair, coherent and national". This position comes following possible support directed exclusively to the Douro region.

Luís Mira emphasized that the wine crisis is not limited to a single producing region, but affects the entire national territory. The agricultural organization thus demands equal treatment for all producers affected by the current situation in the sector.

The World Bank Group, through its Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), issued guarantees of 62.6 million dollars (53.7 million euros) to Portuguese company Mota-Engil to cover its capital investments in Lobito Atlantic Railway, which operates the Lobito Corridor under a 30-year concession with the Angolan Government. The railway infrastructure covers approximately 1,300 kilometres, connecting the Port of Lobito, on the Angolan Atlantic coast, to Luau, on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo, including the operation of a mineral terminal. The project is expected to create over 1,600 jobs at peak operations, of which 97% will be Angolan citizens, and constitutes one of the most competitive routes to export copper and cobalt — essential raw materials for clean energy technologies — to international markets.
