The Junta
de Andalucia has approved two plans for vineyard restructuring which will
benefit 108 growers on 968 hectares of vineyard with an investment of almost 15
million euros. This was explained today in a visit to the vineyards by the Junta’s
minister of Agriculture, Fishery and Environment, Federico Fernandez.
Both plans,
which have a duration of five years 2014-2018, are aimed at energising the development
of the vitivinicultural sector and adapting production to market demand, thus improving
the productive structure of the vineyards.

The
minister visited two vineyards in Jerez, Sobajanera and Candelaro, which each
received 10,000 euro grants in the previous plan to check progress, and pointed
out that the previous plan awarded 6 million euros allowing the restructuring
of 550 hectares. This money comes from the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (FEAGA),
and over 90% of it has gone to Jerez.
