Support of 10 cents for agricultural diesel will also be ensured for the Azores until the end of the year

SAPO15 September 2026 at 17:56

The support of 10 cents per liter for agricultural diesel, announced by the Republic's Government until the end of 2026, will also be ensured for Azorean farmers. The information was advanced by the president of the Agricultural Federation of the Azores (FAA), Jorge Rita.

Jorge Rita announced this decision after a meeting with the regional secretary of Agriculture and Food, António Ventura. The meeting took place at the headquarters of the Agricultural Federation of the Azores.

This financial support aims to compensate farmers for agricultural fuel costs, being a measure that will be in force until the end of 2026 and that now also covers the Autonomous Region of the Azores, benefiting local agricultural producers with the same conditions applied in mainland Portugal.

Why this matters

Azorean farmers will now benefit from the 10 cents per liter agricultural diesel subsidy until 2026, which represents a reduction in production costs for the primary sector of the region. This measure aligns the archipelago with the mainland's agricultural support policy, after a meeting between the Agricultural Federation of the Azores and the regional executive.

Buying a used car? These signs can reveal it was already a TVDE

When buying a used car in Portugal, it is important to know how to identify if the vehicle was previously used as a TVDE (Uber, Bolt), as it may have accumulated more wear and tear than it appears. The main signs include high mileage compared to the car's age, inspections more frequent than normal (TVDE vehicles undergo annual inspection from the first year), unusual wear on rear seats and door handles, marks on the windscreen from mounts or cameras, and traces of old stickers. The law approved in 2026 reinforces the identification of these vehicles with anti-fraud elements. A former TVDE vehicle is not necessarily a bad purchase, but the buyer should adjust the price and condition assessment, always requesting the complete documentary history and an independent mechanical evaluation before closing the deal.
