Wine grape producers in the Canary Islands: conditions and exclusions for agricultural insurance

Order APA/879/2026 establishes the technical conditions, insurable assets, and exclusions for insurance covering wine grape holdings in the Canary Islands (Art. 1). Coverage applies to plots registered in the Canary Islands Viticultural Register or those with a pending registration (Art. 1). Insurable assets include both various production varieties and saplings in the developmental stage prior to production (Art. 2.1).

In 3 key points

  1. Exclusion of coverage for dryland plantations with non-grafted vines under 4 years old or grafted vines under 3 years old (Art. 2.2.a.1º) (art. 2.2.a.1º)
  2. Exclusion of coverage for irrigated plantations with non-grafted vines under 3 years old or grafted vines under 2 years old (Art. 2.2.a.2º) (art. 2.2.a.2º)
  3. Scope limited to plots registered or with a pending registration in the Canary Islands Viticultural Register (Art. 1) (art. 1)

How it affects those involved

For wine grape farmers in the Canary Islands, the regulation defines which plots are eligible for protection, requiring registration in the Viticultural Register (Art. 1). Producers of young plantations must adhere to minimum age requirements to avoid being excluded from coverage (Art. 2.2.a). Production from plots in a state of abandonment, experimental plots, or those intended for self-consumption are strictly excluded (Art. 2.2).
