For its part, Nicolás Gómez, technical wine-making sector of cooperatives Agro-alimentarias, has also appreciated the publication of the Royal Decree to end that begin "soon" a distillation that assures, should "boost" the market during the final stretch of the campaign. On the procedure for this measure, Gómez has clarified that producer wineries will receive aid whose funds will subsequently impact their suppliers of grapes. Since the Association agrarian young farmers (Asaja), Fernando Villena, has defined the approval of the Royal Decree of "positive" but not he shall exercise, in its view, a "miraculous effect" but it will make it possible to preserve the recovery of prices which was launched with the announcement of this new distillation. In the words of Villena, the sector requires a reform of the common organisation of the market (CMO), so that the use of mouth alcohol appropriate only wine and not of their by-products, as already at present. Other reactions thereon, has been the of Alejandro García-Gasco, responsible for State of the wine-growing sector of the Coordinator of organizations of farmers and cattlemen (Coag), who has described the beginning of this distillation of measure with which prices in origin stop below production costs, so that the next campaign started with few surpluses.

In addition, for García-Gasco, should convince the Commission that the public intervention measures are "more needed than ever". Finally, José Manuel Delgado, technical Union of small farmers and ranchers (Upa), has highlighted the importance of this mechanism as well as the influence of the distillers to withdraw from the market up to two million hectolitres. A few weeks ago, the Ministry of environment and medium Rural and Marine Affairs (Marm) issued a special distillation, which is why the situation of the market has improved, according to the Upa technical. Now, Delgado hoped that the initiative to push the number of transactions and contributions. As confirmed by the Marm, the aid per hectare will be 300 euros for the wine producers to demonstrate the delivery to the distillation of use of mouth of, at least 40 hectolitres per hectare, with a minimum of 450 hectogrados each and with a limit at the national level of 50,000 hectares, on the basis of the existing budgetary availability.
