Fixed grape list of imported items
A member of the Central Council of the Zanjan Farmer’s House announced the continuation of Chilean grape imports to the country.
Nazkhand Sobhi, referring to the continuation of Chilean grape imports to the country, added:
In a situation where a significant amount of grapes is produced annually in the country, we see the import of grapes, including Chilean grapes,
which in many cases, due to cheapness, people Foreign products show, while Chilean grapes are also offered for more than 20 thousand tomans.
He added:
Unfortunately, the import of grapes and raisins occurs when the government of prudence and hope is in charge of affairs in the country.
Such things were common under the previous government, as $ 24 billion was allocated to imports in the year of national production.
The agricultural activist continued:
Among the imported goods, ice cream sticks from Germany were also among the imported items.
Most importantly, most of the imported fruits have too much pesticide,
and another problem is that when the grape festival is held in Urmia and this city is introduced as the symbol of the country’s grapes,
Chilean grapes are also imported.
A member of the Central Council of Zanjan Farmer’s House pointed out:
We are the seventh largest producer of grapes in the world. In the field of raisins,
we also produce 160,000 tons of raisins, so the import of grapes, raisins and ice cream sticks has no place among the Arabs.
