The production value of the DOP Economy is 20.7 billion euros in continuous growth and contributes for 19% to the total turnover of the sector with an export that reaches 12 billion on 70 that our nation can guarantee today. We have been thinking in recent years about initiatives to guarantee the protection consortia the tools to encourage and implement their way of working. We have made huge investments to strengthen the primary sector: over 15 billion in 3 years.
