Turkish grape production and agricultural expansion

Overview

Agricultural efforts in Turkey have focused on expanding grape production and utilizing regional resources. In Malatya’s Akçadağ district, producers are working to revive the ancient Tahannebi grape variety, which was previously at risk due to low yields. This initiative involves approximately 500 decares of land and aims to establish Malatya grapes as a global brand through both fresh consumption and dried products.

In Elazığ, grape cultivation has continued to expand. Specifically, producer Özel Çetin has grown production to over 300 decares in the area near Lake Keban, focusing on varieties such as Elazığ White grapes for domestic markets and export to Russia.
