Resumo
[Abstract]Galicia is one of Spain's leading regions regarding agricultural and livestock production. In the light of the COVID-19 crisis, the permeability to the economic shocks of these sectors led to an unprecedented recession, given the heterogeneity of their characteristics, resulting in widespread losses. The main objective of this article is to ana-
lyze the impact of COVID-19 in the agricultural and livestock sectors in Galicia and, at the same time, identify the degree of affectation in each of these sectors, determine the impact of the pandemic in each province and study the institu-
tional responses to the COVID-19 crisis. For this purpose, financial analysis of these sectors will be carried out through
a sample of 998 companies. The results show a variation in operating income of –16.41% in the agricultural sector and
–9.15% in the livestock sector in Galicia, although they are mixed across the different provinces of the region. Despite
the articulation of a network of public aids and the adoption of new commercialization strategies, there are sub-sectors
with high losses, such as the ornamental plant industry and the subsector dedicated to the production of beef.
