Criza de zilieri în Prahova, la strânsul strugurilor / ”Le oferim 200 de lei pe zi și au de cules 400 de kilograme” / ”În prima zi s-au prezentat 16, la cules au rămas doar 7”

Grape harvesting in Dealu Mare started early this year due to high temperatures, leading to excellent yields. However, vineyard owners face a labor shortage, struggling to find workers for the harvest. Many potential workers prefer unregistered payments, complicating the situation further. Some vineyards report that older individuals are the primary labor force, while younger people are less inclined to work, partly due to social aid from local authorities. Despite good production levels, the lack of available labor threatens the harvest process.
