Portugal's caretaker government announced on Wednesday an emergency aid package worth 500 million euros ($543 million) for farmers as it tries to avoid the kind of mass protests causing disruption in France and elsewhere across Europe. As part of the package, Agriculture Minister Maria do Ceu Antunes announced a 55% reduction in the tax on agricultural diesel fuel and an extra 120 million euros to support organic agriculture and mixed farming. Some 200 million euros were to mitigate the impact of a long-running drought impact on farmers' income.
