The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Rural Development of the Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha (JCCM) has announced funding for the municipality of Consuegra aimed at enhancing sports facilities and creating a new cultural space named after the renowned Spanish poet Antonio Machado.
This financial support comes through a public call for aid under the 2024 Project for Public Promotion of Local Entities, facilitated by the Association for Integrated Development of the Montes Toledanos region.

Funding contributions are as follows: 80% from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), 6% from the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and 14% from the Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha.
