CDS-PP Câmara de Lobos defends program with EU funds to preserve vineyards

Funchal Notícias12 September 2026 at 18:48

CDS-PP leaders from Câmara de Lobos attended this morning's Vindima Festival in the parish of Estreito, considering the event a moment that values traditions, producers, and the agricultural identity of the parish. The party was represented by Lídio Aguiar, who used the occasion to reinforce the defense of a program dedicated to vineyard preservation.

According to Lídio Aguiar, vineyards are much more than an agricultural activity, being a cultural and identity element for the region. This perspective justifies, for CDS-PP, the need for public investment in protecting and enhancing this sector.

The party advocates that this preservation program should be funded by European Union funds, taking advantage of the available funds to support agriculture and rural development. The position of CDS-PP Câmara de Lobos is part of the context of the festival that celebrates the harvest, an important tradition for the parish of Estreito.

Why this matters

Readers in the Câmara de Lobos region, in Madeira, see their local political representatives actively defending vineyard preservation through European funding, which may mean new financial support opportunities for local producers. The CDS-PP position comes in the context of the Vindima Festival, reinforcing the economic and cultural importance of this activity for the community.
