MARKET PUZZLE OF
MUSCADINE GRAPES
SOLVED IN GEORGIA
ATLANTA—The muscadine, a
tangy grape with a rare bouquet,
grows wild in Southern woods,
and is cultivated, too.
But it’s tied close to home. It
loses its flavor and bouquet to
overcooking when canned. It
mashes too easily to be shipped.
But soon you may be eating
muscadine ice cream, muscadine
pies or shortcakes, or any num
ber of other foods flavored with
muscadine, for a way has been
found to process these grapes on
a commercial scale.
The answer is blanching and
! quick-freezing, and agricultural
! experts say the raising of musca
dines for market may now become
a profitable source of income for
southern farmers.
As far back as 30 years ago Dr.
I H. P. Stuckey, director of the
Georgia Experiment Station, be
gan plant breeding work to im
prove the quality and productiv
ity of native muscadines.
This has resulted in a heavy
bearing plant which is now being
distributed to the state’s farms.
