Winemaking grape producers: conditions and exclusions for agricultural insurance

The APA/878/2026 Order establishes technical conditions, insurable assets and yields for winemaking grape insurance in the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands under the 47th Combined Agricultural Insurance Plan (art. 1). The regulation specifies which varieties and plantings are covered, as well as insurable installations (art. 2.1). It also sets minimum plantation ages for production to be considered insurable (art. 2.2).

In 3 key points

  1. Minimum age for dry land grape plantations: 4 years (with trellising) or 3 years (grafted plant), art. 2.2.a.1 (art. 2.2.a.1)
  2. Minimum age for irrigated grape plantations: 3 years (with trellising) or 2 years (grafted plant), art. 2.2.a.2 (art. 2.2.a.2)
  3. Geographic scope: Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands, art. 1 (art. 1)

How it affects those involved

For winemakers in the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands, coverage is conditional on registration in the viticultural registry or application for regularization (art. 1). Producers with young plantations must meet minimum age thresholds (between 2 and 4 years depending on crop type and grafting) to avoid exclusion from coverage (art. 2.2). Abandoned plots, experimental plots and family orchards for self-consumption are explicitly excluded (art. 2.2).
