GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE VINEYARDS AND WINE PRODUCTION IN RURAL AREAS OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Journal Title: FOLIA GEOGRAPHICA - Year 2017, Vol 59, Issue 2
Abstract
Because of the climate and natural ecological conditions, Bosnia and Herzegovina produces premium wines. The geographical position of Bosnia and Herzegovina, especially of the Herzegovina region, has ideal conditions to promote Bosnia and Herzegovina as a significant producer of high-quality wines, as national brands. These potentials and advantages for wine production need to be well integrated, as a significant economic activity. Bosnia and Herzegovina is characterized by two major wine growing regions: Herzegovina and North Bosnia region. They differ in terms of climate and soil composition. The North Bosnia wine-growing region has a predominantly continental climate, and the vineyards are located on podzolic soil. The region of Herzegovina is characterized by Mediterranean climate, and the vineyards are mostly situated on lime marl soils. The vineyards of Herzegovina are located at an altitude of 10-500 meters above sea level.
