Small-scale agriculture and fishing to receive 0.06 euro/liter subsidy on colored diesel
The 2027 State Budget proposal introduces a subsidy of 0.062 euros per liter for colored diesel used by small-scale farmers, family farms, aquaculture operators, and small-scale artisanal and coastal fishing businesses with annual consumption up to 2,000 liters. Family farmers receive an additional 0.042 euros per liter, and subsidies are also extended to gasoline and LPG usage for specific small-scale fishing, farming, and sea salt extraction activities.
Why it mattersIf you operate a small-scale family farm or engage in artisanal fishing in Portugal, you may be eligible for these fuel cost subsidies once the 2027 State Budget is approved and takes effect.
