All new vineyard plantings are created from planting of certified material of our own production or acquired in Italy, France and Germany. At the present stage, vineyard plantations in Moldova are 80% occupied by classic European varieties. The rest - are local indigenous varieties. All technological processes in primary winemaking are based on modern biotechnology achievements and innovations: enzymes for clarifying wort, yeast for fermentation and bacteria to reduce acidity in red wines. The well-known preservative - sulfur dioxide is replaced with inert gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide) and the use of low temperatures. Table wines are exported mainly to Romania, the Czech Republic, Germany, Poland, China, the United States and Canada. All the achievements of viticulture and winemaking in Moldova are based on the latest scientific and technological progress, developed and implemented in the Republic of Moldova by scientists from the Academy of Sciences of Moldova, universities, as well as specialists from the National Office of Grapes and Wine.

  • Development of Agricultural Cooperatives in the Eu 2014
    PUB(14)9112:4 DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVES IN THE EU 2014 DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVES IN THE EU 2014 Printed in Brussels, 5th February 2015 picture copyrights : © Copa-Cogeca Further information on agricultural Cooperatives in Europe can be downloaded from the Cogeca web site: http://www.copa-cogeca.eu/ Cogeca © European agri-cooperatives (Cogeca), 2014 Copy, print permitted when mentioning the source: Cogeca. Printed in Brussels on 5th February 2015 PREFACE European agriculture is facing a multitude of challenges. Despite the re- cent reform which started to be implemented in 2014, numerous uncer- tainties still exist. Market conditions are evolving and pressure is in- creasing for more effective responses and higher level of efficiency at international level. Nevertheless, opportunities are also significant for our cooperatives and farmer members. Let me also remind you that when I was appointed President of Cogeca, we approved a working programme that included certain policy objec- tives aiming to promote the entrepreneurial orientation of European agri-cooperatives. This report constitutes thus a useful instrument of information, to facilitate our lobbying to the European Institutions, as well as our contacts with other stakeholders and international organisa- tions. The information contained in this report, highlights the role of agri-cooperatives and of national cooperative organisations. Information on the current profile of agri-cooperatives referring to their economic performance and the evolution of their structures, is of fundamental importance in policy de- cision making at EU level. Recognition of their contribution in economic growth, employment and in sustainable development, is of key importance for policy making. For the same reason it is also essen- tial to present the specificities of cooperatives and the wide variety of different type of cooperative or- ganisations across the EU Member States.

  • Protection of Geographical Indications in Moldova
    Protection of geographical indications in the Republic of Moldova Introduction The Republic of Moldova is an integral part of Europe. Following the restructuring processes started in Central and Eastern Europe and the national liberation movement, on June 23, 1990, the former Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic proclaimed its sovereignty, and on August 27, 1991 − independence. With it began the process of state-building in the Republic of Moldova and the assertion on external level. The Republic of Moldova became a member of the United Nations Organization on March 2, 1992, a member of the Council of Europe - on July 13, 1995, and since July 26, 2001, the Republic of Moldova is a full-right member of the WTO. Moldova is predominantly an agricultural country with secular traditions in agriculture, particularly in viticulture, and with considerable production potential for wines and for other products eligible to bear the geographical indications (GI) and appellations of origin (AO) − fruits, vegetables, honey, nuts, edible oils and essential oils, meat, poultry, sausages, dairy products, mineral waters, handicrafts, etc. The country enjoys a temperate continental climate, a fertile soil and a very favourable topography for viticulture due to its location at approximately the same latitude (45°28´-48°29´ N) as the famous wine regions of France (Alsace, Bordeaux, Burgundy) and of northern Italy. Brief History Moldova was the main supplier of wines, fruits and vegetables for the former republics of the USSR. Unfortunately, intensive agriculture practiced in the Soviet period, particularly in the 70- 80s, have not favoured preserving and developing of the manufacturing and changing traditions characteristic to the local population, therefore the culture of geographical indications was not developed, although Moldovan products, mainly wines from certain geographical areas (Purcari, Ciumai, Romăneşti etc.) were famous far beyond the country.
