Unseasonal Rain Damages Grape Crop in Maharashtra

In Maharashtra, India, too much rain at the wrong time hurt grape farms.

This made fewer raisins for selling to other countries.

The rain came during important months when grapes need to grow and dry.

Farmers in Nashik and Sangli were hit the hardest.

Even though they sent raisins to many countries, they had less to sell.

This might make raisins and grapes more expensive in India, but farmers hope to earn more money from selling them locally.

Maharashtra is a big place for growing grapes, and this shows how weather can hurt farming.
