What you need to know

2 মিনিট

A new government-run raisin (dried grape) processing unit has been set up in Vijayapura to help Karnataka's grape farmers cut transport costs.

Farmers earlier had to transport their produce out of the state, to Sangli or Pune in Maharashtra, or pay higher rates at private processing units.

Vijayapura is among Karnataka's leading grape-growing districts.
