Canary Islands agricultural registry reaches 20,065 entries

The Canary Islands Agricultural Holdings Registry (REAC) has reached a total of 20,065 registered holdings. The system, which began implementation in 2025, aims to improve the management of agricultural aid, facilitate production traceability, and strengthen food safety guarantees.

The initial implementation phase included the automatic incorporation of 16,107 holdings using data from the Canary Islands Viticultural Registry and the POSEI community support program. Since then, the database has expanded through direct declarations from holders, with 4,831 administrative requests for registrations and updates recorded to date.

By island, Tenerife holds the highest number of registered holdings with 9,364, followed by La Palma with 5,636, Lanzarote with 2,060, Gran Canaria with 1,569, La Gomera with 697, El Hierro with 665, and Fuerteventura with 67.
