Russia to start growing grapes in unexpected places 06:24

Rising temperatures in some parts of Russia will make it possible to grow grapes much further north than they do now, but this could lead to conflicts with other agricultural crops, said Vladimir Gorchakov, head of the ACRA Sustainable Development Risk Assessment Group. RIA News.

Studies show that by the end of the century, up to 90% of traditional wine-growing regions could be lost or drastically altered by global warming. This is particularly true in the lowland or coastal regions of southern France, northern Spain, southern Italy, California and Australia.

Climate change will lead to more frequent and longer heat waves, changes in humidity and temperature cycles throughout the year, and changes in the length of sunny days, Gorchakov noted.

He also stressed that growing grapes in new regions will require additional resources for irrigation, early harvesting and storage of the product, but the exact costs can only be determined in two to three years.
