What happened

Well supportedReported by 3 independent outlets

Kakheti grape growers began protests against low purchase prices for their harvest on September 21, 2026, in areas including Shildi and Akhalsopeli. The growers demanded a revision of the pricing decree, stating that the price for grapes with sugar content below 17 degrees on the Brix scale did not cover growing and harvesting costs. Authorities in Georgia revised the purchase prices on September 22, 2026, increasing payments for some low-sugar products and lowering the minimum sugar content required for maximum pricing.
