  "account": "The Spanish Ministry of Agriculture plans to activate a new mechanism on Friday to regulate the olive oil market. The scheme aims to withdraw 188,000 tonnes of olive oil from the market to control supply and halt the decline in prices. The move has raised concerns with the National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC). This season's olive oil production is expected to be the fourth highest on record, but prices have fallen to around €3 per kilogram, causing discontent among producers.",
  "summary": "El Ministerio de Agricultura está considerando la activación de un nuevo mecanismo de autorregulación para que las almazaras retiren 188.000 toneladas de aceite de oliva del mercado, equivalente al 12% de la producción prevista en esta campaña. Este medida tiene como objetivo regular la oferta y frenar la caída de los precios del aceite virgen extra, que ha experimentado una fuerte caída hasta alrededor de tres euros por kilo, una caída significativa frente a los niveles de cinco euros en los que se considera rentable. Aunque la medida ha generado recelos en la Comisión Nacional del Mercado de la Competencia (CNMC), se espera que sea un paso crucial para estabilizar el mercado y proteger a los productores.",
