Grape export unblocked

The restrictions on the export of grapes have been lifted, Info-Prim Neo reports. Minister of Agriculture and Food Industry Valeriu Cosarciuc has told Info-Prim Neo that all the obstacles hindering the grape growers from exporting their products have been removed. According to him, Moldova-Vin sent a letter to the Customs Service, informing it that the earlier instructions had been annulled. The given letter also excludes the necessity of registering the export contracts with Moldova-Vin. The changes were made after Prime Minister Vlad Filat, at the first meeting of the new Government on September 25, instructed officials of the ministries to identify immediate solutions to a number of acute problems. The Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry was entrusted with the task of unblocking the export of grapes and removing the existent barriers to the grape export by Monday, September 28.
