Hnahlan village, near the Indo-Myanmar border, noted for its extensive grape cultivation, is now striving to become the largest grape producing village in India. Around 80 per cent of the villagers are engaged in grape-cultivation, after foresaking the primitive shifting cultivation 10 years ago and are now reaping the ‘fruits of their labour’, sources said.

Wine made from the fruit is said to be of high quality and commercially viable.

Some 1,000 farmers in Mizoram grow an estimated 6,000 quintals of grapes annually in small to medium plantations spread over about 3,000 acres.
