Joaquin Gomez Carrasco, President of the Association of Producers and Exporters of Fruit and Table Grapes of the Region of Murcia, APOEXPA, has participated in the discussion:

«Twenty years ago in Spain we began to investigate new varieties, none of them have seeds, because those with seeds are disappearing,» says Carrasco, saying that seedless grapes are a «fourth natural range». Speaking of international markets, Carrasco adds: “The great concern is that the increase in production will cause a fluctuation in prices. For this reason it is necessary to find new outlets in the market, but generally growth is a slow process. Therefore, it is not a question of producing a greater quantity, but a better quality. This is the challenge shared by all producers in the Mediterranean area.
