Not all crops get along well with grapes, and some even have a negative impact on the harvest.

Other plants have a completely opposite effect. Summer residents need to plant them next to grapes.

The best neighbor in this case is sorrel. Firstly, it has the same care requirements. Secondly, next to this sour comrade, grapes reveal their potential better.

The yield increases and the quality of the fruit is pleasing.

Another option is strawberries. They help maintain proper soil moisture levels.

The roots of strawberries and grapes are located at different depths, they are not intertwined and do not interfere with the normal absorption of moisture and nutrients.

All legumes are suitable for growing next to grapes. The best options are peas, beans and soybeans.

Some bushes can also be placed nearby. For example, currants or raspberries.

But with currants, it is worth considering one nuance. The bush likes more moisture, so in this case you will have to water it a little more often.
