The Government approved an exceptional scheme for applications for vineyard restructuring and conversion support, with a budget of five million euros. The measure is aimed at winegrowers who suffered losses due to bad weather recorded between January 28 and February 15, 2026.

The scheme applies an extraordinary application period to the 2026/2027 campaign, allowing affected producers to access the available support for restructuring and converting their vineyards.

Winegrowers who were harmed by the adverse weather conditions during that period may apply for the funds made available by the Executive under this special programme.

The allocation of five million euros aims to mitigate the financial impacts suffered by wine producers as a result of the bad weather that affected the vineyards during the indicated period.
