Spain approves €182.2 million package for October storm damage

Spain’s cabinet approved a €182.2 million emergency package on 10 November for damage caused by DANA Adam, with details published the following day. The measures respond to flooding and other impacts between 17 and 19 October, particularly along the Mediterranean coast, including southern Valencia and northern Alicante.

Agricultural support totals €88.7 million and includes repairs to public farm roads and shared infrastructure. The package also provides help for insured farmers and extends financing arrangements for affected agricultural businesses.

A further €74.5 million covers repair, protection and improvement work led by the ecological transition ministry. Within that amount, €70 million is allocated to emergency coastal works in the Valencian Community. The announcement concerns recovery from October’s storm, rather than a new weather warning.
