The European Commission has allocated up to 10 million euros in aid to agricultural producers in specific sectors facing economic difficulties. Farming operations that generate at least 25% of their turnover from walnuts or cherries and have experienced a 20% decline in turnover can apply for the aid. The challenges in the walnut sector are due to overproduction, while cherry producers are struggling with the withdrawal of insecticide molecules and a ban on cherries containing certain residues.
