Grapes: A Fruitful Crop in Pakistan’s Agricultural Landscape
The grape (Vitis Vinifera) is one of the most popular fruits in Pakistan. It has a long history dating back to Mughal times. Pakistan’s climate, soil conditions and other factors make grape cultivation a profitable crop. This article will give a comprehensive overview on grape cultivation in Pakistan. It will cover topics ranging from general information to after-harvest management.
General Information
Grapes are a deciduous plant that belongs to the Vitaceae. They are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and make a healthy and nutritious snack. Grapes can also be used to make wine, juice, and raisins.
Climate
Grapes are adapted for a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and cold winters. In Pakistan, grapes grow in the temperate areas of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. The ideal temperature range for grape cultivation is 15degC to 30degC.
Soil
Grapes can be grown on a variety of soils. However, they prefer fertile, well-drained soils that have a pH range between 6.0 and 7. The soil should have a high organic matter content and a high water-holding capacity.
Popular Varieties and Their Yield
In Pakistan, several grape varieties are grown, including:
– Thompson Seedless: This variety is known for its high yield (20-25kg/plant) and sweet, juicier berries.
– ‘Perlette:’ This variety is known for its high yield (15-20kg/plant) and crunchy, sweet berries.
– ‘Black Monukka:’ This variety is known for its high yield (10-15kg/plant) and sweet berries.
– ‘Kishmish:’ This variety is known for its high yield (8-12kg/plant) and sweet berries.
Land Preparation
Before planting grapes the soil should be thoroughly prepared. The soil should be plowed down to a depth between 30-40 cm. This is followed by manuring and leveling.
Seed
Grapes are propagated by cuttings or by grafting. Cuttings from healthy, mature vines can be grafted on to a rootstock.
Sowing
Time to Sow: From February through April is the best time for grape cuttings.
– Spacing : For grapevines, the spacing is usually 2-3 meters.
– Sowing depth: For grape cuttings, the sowing depth is usually 10-15 cm.
– Sowing Method: Grape cuttings may be planted directly on the field or at a nursery.
Intercrops
In grape orchards, intercropping can increase productivity and reduce erosion. Intercrops that are suitable include herbs, vegetables and legumes.
Fertilizer
Fertilizer Requirement (gm/tree)
| Age (in years) | Cow dung (kg) | CAN (gm) | SSP (gm) | MOP (gm) |
| 1st year | 20 | 400 | 1500 | 250 |
| 2nd year | 35 | 500 | 2500 | 350 |
| 3rd year | 50 | 600 | 3500 | 500 |
| 4th year | 65 | 800 | 4000 | 650 |
| 5th year | 80 | 1000 | 4500 | 800 |
Apply Urea@60gm, followed by MOP@125gm to newly planted vines in April. Repeat the same dose again in June. The table shows the fertilizer application for older vines. After pruning, the full dose of FYM, SSP and Potassium is applied. The half doses of Nitrogen & Potassium and Nitrogen & Potassium will be applied in April after fruit set. The urea spraying is done twice, once at full bloom and again at fruit set.
Weed Control
Weed control is essential in grape orchards to reduce competition for water and nutrients. Weeds can be controlled through mulching, herbicides, or manual removal
Irrigation
| Time | Number |
| After pruning in the 1st fortnight of February | One irrigation |
| First week of March | One irrigation |
| After fruit set in April till 1st week of May | At 10 days interval |
| During the rest of May | Weekly interval |
| June | 3 or 4 days interval |
| July to October | Irrigate when prolonged dry spell or rainfall is in sufficient |
| November to January | One irrigation if soil gets extremely dry |
Plant Protection
Powdery mildew and downy mildew are among the pests and diseases that can affect grape vines. These pests and disease can be controlled by regular monitoring and using integrated pest management techniques.
Harvesting
Grapes can be harvested from July to September depending on the type. It is important to pick the grapes at their mature stage as they will not ripen further after harvest.
Post-Harvest
Grapes must be handled with care after harvest to prevent damage. To maintain quality, grapes must be kept in a dry and cool place.
Conclusion:
Grapes are an important crop in Pakistan. They offer many benefits to farmers, consumers and the environment. Following the guidelines in this article will help farmers maximize their grape yields and improve their fruit quality. They can also increase their profitability.
