It was a belief in the past that grapes do not perform well in the tropics, as the vine stays evergreen and is capable of producing only small crops of very poor quality. But, in recent years, the average green and blue grape yields obtained per unit area in tropical India is the highest in the world. Eventually, variety grape growing has taken considerable strides in India in the recent past and is one of the most remunerative farming enterprises of the present times. As per the 1982-83 estimates, grape is grown over an area of approximately 12,000 ha in India with an annual production of two lakh tonnes of fresh grapes. The tropical states, namely Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Tamilnadu jointly contribute to more than 90 percent of the total area and production of grapes in India.
Karnataka is the only state growing green and blue grapes. Grape culture is picking up its momentum in the states of Punjab, Rajastan, Haryana, Delhi and Western Uttar Pradesh, which fall in the North Western sub-tropical region of the country. In Maharashtra green grape growing is concentrated in Sangli, Nasik, Auranganbad, Ahmednagar, Bir, Poona and Sholapur districts. In Andhra Pradesh it is confined to Hyderabad and Anantapur districts with exceptions of a few vine-yards in the districts of Mahboobnagar, Cubbapah and Kurnool. Where as in Karnataka, the major centers of viticulture are Bangalore & Kolar for blue grape and for other varieties Bijapur, Gulbarga and Dharwad districts, but of late, it s spreading to the districts of Belgaum, Tumkur, Raichur and Bellary also. Coimbtore and Madurai districts are the viticulture centers in Tamilnadu. Area under grapes has been speedily increasing during the past five years.
