European hunting sector and economic impact
Overview
Major hunting organizations from several European nations, including Spain, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and France, convened in Almagro, Spain, for the Big Five FACE summit. Hosted by the International Center for Hunting Gastronomy, the meeting focused on the role of hunting in environmental conservation and its capacity to drive economic and social opportunities.
Following these discussions, regional authorities in Spain have emphasized the sector’s economic impact. In Extremadura, provincial councils in Badajoz and Cáceres have implemented aid programs totaling 1.2 million euros to support local hunting societies in species recovery and population management.
In Castilla-La Mancha, the hunting sector is recognized as a significant driver of the rural economy, contributing approximately 1,000 million euros annually and accounting for over 2 percent of the regional GDP. The industry supports more than 21,000 jobs and facilitates hunting tourism, with a significant portion of participants traveling from other autonomous communities.
