With this last aid, the Government of the Canary Islands will have paid in recent months 23.5 million euros in extraordinary aid to livestock farms on the islands. For 2023 there is approved in the budgets of the Autonomous Community an item of 8.5 million euros.

In addition, we have increased aid for non-capital islands by 16% in order to compensate for cost overruns."

Linked to these actions, we formalized subsidies with the councils for forage plans, as well as fiscal measures for animal feed. "

[align=justify][size=small][color=#222222][font=Verdana, BlinkMacSystemFont, -apple-system,]Vanoostende stressed the importance of providing security to the sector and boosting its profitability: "We improved regulatory frameworks to make the legalization of livestock farms more flexible. In three years we have resolved 60% of the files compared to 10% resolved in the last 10 years. On the other hand, with the regulation of the DOSAs, we unify the criteria for livestock farms on the islands, to which we must add the actions we carry out for the application of the Food Chain Law, with the inclusion of the Price Observatory, control and supervision visits, cost analysis as well as the tools we have made available to farmers so that they can calculate their production costs; We are taking a firm step towards compliance with the law."
