Resumo
The wine sector currently lacks nuclear features, which makes Portugal’s producing performance drift away from the frontline worldwide wine producers. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the evolution of the Portuguese wine industry’s performance through the world and national available statistical data. Also, this work tries to evaluate the sustainability dynamic regarding the North and Alentejo, using the Portuguese Farm Accountancy Data Network from 2001 to 2012. From the sustainability indicators, the results show that Alentejo presents the best performance in terms of environmental sustainability. The North has an increasing economic dimension of sustainability and good social performance. The conclusions suggest that academic research can improve the wine industry’s overall orientation to sustainability.
