The problems faced by the 14 commandery villages and their winegrowers, occupied an on-site visit by members of the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture and of Natural Resources, with its President, Giannakis Gavriel assuring that every effort will be made to resolve them.

As Mr. Gavriil said in his statement to KYPE, “a serious problem arises, since after the two years of implementation of the measure for green harvesting, we have been informed that the Ministry of Agriculture will not proceed for the 3rd year, while at the same time other problems concerning the organization, availability and promotion of the product”.

With the aim of promoting the product, he continued, the Committee asked a representative of the Deputy Ministry of Tourism, who was present at today's meeting, to immediately place command kiosks in the seven Christmas villages, which have already started operating for the festive period.

As a second measure, he added, “we will request an immediate meeting with the Minister of Agriculture, after a note has been prepared with the five most important issues that concern the command villages and at the same time, we will proceed to support the creation of a producer group winery, so that they can have their own benefits, like a form of mini-cooperation”.

The latter, he said, would be a good practice to avoid any exploitation of producers by wineries “who have not received grapes for two years, so he proceeded the Ministry in the green harvest and now an issue arises, whether or not they will cultivate their vines this year”.

Mr. Gavriel said, finally, that the production of the commandery is a separate matter from the rest of the wine production, as it is a PDO, which limits the production of quantities per decario.
