The CDS-PP party advocates the use of European funds to preserve vineyards in the Estreito region, in the Madeira archipelago. The proposal comes in the context of concerns about maintaining this traditional agricultural activity in the region.
Lídio Aguiar, a figure associated with CDS-PP, is the main face of this initiative. He argues in favor of direct support for farmers who keep the vineyards active, recognizing the effort required to continue producing wine in this area.
Additionally, the proposal includes incentives aimed at the wine cellars in the region. These establishments would be encouraged to invest in the purchase and recovery of abandoned or degraded agricultural land, thereby contributing to the revitalization of the local wine sector.
The initiative aims to ensure that the wine-making tradition of Estreito is not lost, taking advantage of the financial mechanisms available at the European level to support the sustainable development of regional agriculture.
