Luis Planas

Luis Planas is the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in the Spanish Government. He is currently newsworthy due to the impact of the war in Iran on the Spanish economy, particularly the agro-alimentary sector. Planas recently addressed the rising prices of raw materials, urging each part of the food supply chain to adjust costs. He is also involved in the government's response to the avian flu situation, recently lifting confinement measures for poultry in most municipalities, with some exceptions. Planas's role is significant as he navigates the challenges of rising costs and supply chain disruptions affecting the agricultural and food sectors in Spain.
