After finding unexpected success with growing grapes locally, farmer Devon Gilead has met unexpected devastation with his losses amounting to over $10m due to drought and destruction of vines by cows.
Gilead, a bee keeper. of Glasgow New Housing Scheme, East Bank Berbice, is known throughout the ancient county as the ‘Grape Boss’ due to his success with growing the fruit locally in the face of much doubt.
Next to his house, Gilead was starting a grapes farm with government assisting with the land. However, unexpectedly he said cows have continuously invaded his land destroyed and his vines – a matter he has received no justice for.
