Agricultural Federation wants 10 cent support on agricultural diesel for the Azores

jornalacores9.pt10 September 2026 at 13:21

The Azores Agricultural Federation (FAA) advocated that the extraordinary support of 10 cents per liter on agricultural diesel, extended by the Republic's Government until the end of 2026, should also be applied to Azorean farmers.

The first announcement of the extension of this subsidy was made by the prime minister on Wednesday, extending the measure to be in force until the end of next year.

The FAA argues that Azorean farmers should benefit from the same agricultural diesel support conditions that are granted to mainland Portuguese producers.

The federation therefore aims to guarantee equity in access to this energy benefit for the agricultural sector of the autonomous region.

Florida's Economy Is Now Worth Almost as Much as All of Brazil's, BEA Reports

Florida's economy reached approximately US$ 1.835 trillion in 2025, representing about 80% of Brazil's estimated GDP of US$ 2.28 trillion, a difference of US$ 445 billion between the American state and the entire country. With just 23.5 million inhabitants across a territory of 139,000 km² — compared to Brazil's 213.4 million people across 8.5 million km² — Florida ranks as the fourth-largest state economy in the US and would be the 14th largest in the world if it were a country. The state's nominal GDP grew 41% over four years, driven by diversified sectors including finance, healthcare, technology, and logistics. The Florida Chamber of Commerce Foundation attributes this success to the free enterprise model, low taxes, and lighter regulation, with a goal of positioning the state among the top ten global economies by 2030.
