The CIS has conducted the monthly barometer with the usual questions such as voting intentions, problems affecting Spaniards, international conflicts and, as a current issue, the demands of the agricultural sector.

Vote estimate and preference for president of government

The People's Party would obtain 34% of the votes this month, followed by the PSOE with 31.3%. In third place would be VOX with 9.9%, and SUMAR would obtain 9.2% of the votes.

Pedro Sánchez is the preferred candidate for Prime Minister for 23.3% of Spaniards, 6.8 points ahead of Alberto Núñez Feijóo, who is favored by 16.5%. Yolanda Díaz is the favorite for 6.3%, Santiago Abascal for 5.9%, and Isabel Díaz Ayuso for 5.3%.

Regarding the defined respondents, the gaps widen: 37.8% of those surveyed who gave their opinion prefer Pedro Sánchez as Prime Minister, giving him an 11-point lead over Feijóo, who is preferred by 26.8%, with Yolanda Diaz in third position with 10.2%.

Demands in the agricultural sector

60.1% of those surveyed say they are aware of the farmers' demands, and 71.4% say they have not been personally affected by the protests carried out, such as tractor demonstrations, road blockades, or port blockades.
On a scale of 0 to 10, 47.3% of those surveyed said they "strongly agree" with the demands of farmers and ranchers, and only 1% said they "completely disagree" with them.
59.4% of Spaniards believe the main problem in the sector is "price imbalances along the supply chain," from farm to table. The second most cited issue is "unfair competition from third countries" (56.3%). And for 30.1%, the problem lies in "rising production costs."

Regarding who can do more to solve the sector's problem, 36.6% believe it is the European Union, followed by the Spanish Government (35.9%) and 7.5% say it should be the autonomous communities.

Economic situation and main concerns

62.4% say their personal economic situation is “very good or good”, compared to 25.9% who say it is “bad or very bad” and 11.1% say it is fair.

The problems that most affect Spaniards personally at the moment are the economic crisis and those of an economic nature (41.7%), health (15.8%) and problems related to the quality of employment (15.4%).

Climate change worries 76.4% of respondents “a lot or quite a bit.” 69.2% are “a lot or quite a bit” worried about the war in the Middle East, while 73.1% are “very or quite” worried about the invasion of Ukraine.

These and other data are collected in the monthly barometer carried out from March 1 to 5 with 3,931 interviews.
