Abstract

The paper discusses the territorial unit most vulnerable to hail in Georgia, Kakheti, and its  istorical and current hail-related situation. With the help of the views of famous scientists as well as surveys, the authors of the paper concluded that nature isn’t the only reason for hailstorms. The cause can also be the chemical substances used in the grapevine care process.
