According to one report, the value of the subsidies varies depending on the type of fishing and the zone of operation. For Zone A fishers, 38% of an average total income of RM 2,118 per month is from subsidies (18% of income is from the fuel subsidy). For Zone C fishers, 28% of the average total income of RM 20,881 is from subsidies (24% of income is from the fuel subsidy). The authorities also pointed out that the fuel subsidy is only available to eligible fishers in Zones A, B, and C and that larger commercial vessels are not eligible.

Likewise, up until 2013, the Rural Energy Law also provided for an "Agricultural Diesel" programme, which established a preferential price for a quota of this type of diesel. In 2016, SAGARPA reactivated the programme in a new format. Beneficiaries under the new programme must register with SAGARPA by enrolling in a new "List of Agricultural Diesel Beneficiaries". Beneficiaries can obtain an agricultural diesel quota only up to the total allocated in 2013. Producers receive support in the form of up to 5,000 litres per item of equipment and up to 20,000 litres per beneficiary per year. Users must also register the equipment that they are going to use, which may not be more than 20 years old for tractors and machinery or 10 years old for pumping equipment.
