Over 27,000 farmers register vineyards for grape exports.
Feb 03, 2023

Over 27,000 farmers have registered their vineyards, on around 18,000 hectare, for grape export in the Nashik district so far.
 
The initial deadline for registration of vineyards was November 30, 2022. However, at that time, only 18,000 farmers had registered their vineyards on 12,000 hectares.
 
Considering the poor response, the state agricultural department extended the deadline for registration to January 15.
 
The agricultural department officials said they are expecting a 20% rise in grape exports this season. They are expecting the export from the district to cross 1.5 lakh metric tonnes. Last year, the district exported 1.22 lakh MT of grapes.
 
The grape export from the district began in the first week of January. So far, 3,524 metric tonnes of grapes have been exported to European countries, including 3,026 MT to the Netherlands and 155 MT to Germany.
 
The area under grape plantation in Nashik district is estimated at around 58,367 hectares, including 22,000 hectares in Niphad taluka, 15,758 hectares in Dindori taluka, 11,671 hectares in Nashik taluka and 5,148 hectares in Chandwad taluka. The rest of the grape plantation is done in Bagalan and Kalwan taluka of the district.
 
Of the 58,367 hectares, early grape harvest takes place between September and November on 2,400 hectares. The regular grape harvest begins in December on the remaining area.
