The Union of Small Farmers and Ranchers in Spain is warning of a potential market crisis in the agricultural sector, with a serious impact on the wine industry. The sector is struggling with a lack of profitability and the challenges of climate change, exacerbated by non-compliance with the Food Chain Law and the influence of international politics. There has also been a significant decline in consumption, leading to a 45% drop in demand for new vineyards.

The union also expects a normal harvest this year, but concerns remain about low stock levels and the freezing of authorizations for new plantations until 2026.
