Greenhouse cultivation of grapes/ Export to Montenegro underway

TIRANA, June 10 /ATA/ – The Italian experience in greenhouse cultivation of grapes is being widely embraced by farmers across the country and the government policies are providing support through all financial instruments to help the grape growing and harvesting sector meet highest standards.

Farmers in Fier and Lushnje are involved in large scale greenhouse cultivation of grape, a highly-sought fruit in the international markets.

Deputy Prime Minister Erion Braçe said Thursday that Albania’s grape export is already underway with the practice of greenhouse cultivation of grapes in the country.

“I am told that Montenegrin customs officials do not believe that Albania grows grape during this season of the year. But this is true. This is happening in Myzeqe, where grape is being cultivated in greenhouses,” Braçe said.

Albania exports top quality grape to Kosovo, Croatia, Romania, Slovenia, Serbia and Montenegro.
