GREMPA: Μεσογειακή ομάδα έρευνας και μελέτης για την αμυγδαλιά (και την φιστικιά)

Στο προηγούμενο άρθρο σχετικά με την παγκόσμια παραγωγή κελυφωτού φιστικιού φάνηκε ότι δεν είναι άσχημη η ιδέα της δημιουργίας μιας κοινής ταυτότητας για το Μεσογειακό κελυφωτό φιστίκι και προέκυψε το ερώτημα αν υπάρχει κάποιος φορέας που θα μπορούσε να το προωθήσει. Στο μεταξύ είχαμε δει ότι το 2008 είχε γίνει στην Αθήνα η 14η συνάντηση μιας Μεσογειακή ομάδας έρευνας και μελέτης για την αμυγδαλιά (GREMPA) και ότι οι συμμετέχοντες είχαν ζητήσει να επισκεφθούν την Αίγινα δείχνοντας ενδιαφέρον για το φιστίκι Αιγίνης. Αναρωτηθήκαμε λοιπόν τι κάνει αυτή η ομάδα και αν θα μπορούσε να μας φανεί χρήσιμη σε κάτι. Ας δούμε λοιπόν τι μπορεί κανείς να μάθει γι'αυτήν:
 Ο κ. Δ.Κ. Στυλιανίδης, Επ. Δ/ντης Ινστιτούτου Φυλλοβόλων Δένδρων και ιδρυτικό μέλος του GREMPA κάνει εδώ μια συνοπτική παρουσίαση της ομάδας στα ελληνικά, αποσπάσματα της οποίας παραθέτουμε:

"Η δημιουργία αυτής της Μεσογειακής ομάδας ξεκίνησε στις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 1970. Η ονομασία της είναι: Groupe de Recherche et d’ Etude Mediterraneen pour l’ Amandier (GREMPA). Μεταφέροντας την στην ελληνική γλώσσα, "Μεσογειακή ομάδα έρευνας και μελέτης της αμυγδαλιάς." Αργότερα συμπεριλήφθησαν και άλλα είδη δένδρων, όπως η λεπτοκαρυά (φουντουκιά), η φιστικιά και η καρυδιά. Η ονομασία όμως δεν άλλαξε.

       Δεν άργησε η τότε ΕΟΚ να εκτιμήσει την σπουδαιότητα αυτής της ομάδας, να τη θέσει υπό την σκέπη της, να την χρηματοδοτεί, να την ενισχύει ποικιλοτρόπως, μέχρις ότου την κατέστησε όργανό της για την άσκηση της πολιτικής της στον τομέα των ξηρών καρπών. Προγράμματα της ΕΟΚ για τους ξηρούς καρπούς, όπως η δημιουργία οψιμανθών ποικιλιών αμυγδαλιάς, αυτογονίμων ποικιλιών αμυγδαλιάς, υποκειμένων ανθεκτικών στην ξηρασία, συστήματα καλλιέργειας λεπτοκαρυάς, πειραματικοί ποικιλιών φιστικιάς, δημιουργίας πλαγιοκάρπων ποικιλιών καρυδιάς και πολλά άλλα, τα αναλάμβανε η Μεσογειακή αυτή ομάδα. Έτσι η Μεσογειακή αυτή ομάδα κατέστη ισχυρός επιστημονικός βραχίονας της ΕΟΚ."
 ......(παραλείπονται "Λίγες γραμμές για τον Souty")

Στην συνέχεια ο κ. Στυλιανίδης κάνει μια αναδρομή στα δύο συνέδρια του GREMPA στη χώρα μας, 1985 Θεσσαλονίκη και 2008 Αθήνα.
Στην πρώτη συνάντηση  (1985) "οι ανακοινώσεις και οι συζητήσεις που ακολούθησαν", λέει ό κ. Στυλιανίδης, "διάρκεσαν τρεις μέρες και τα θέματα ήταν πολλά, κυρίως γύρω από την αμυγδαλιά, αλλά και για τη φιστικιά, τη λεπτοκαρυά και την καρυδιά, καθώς και την υποβοήθηση χωρών οι οποίες παρουσίαζαν κάποια υστέρηση." Μετά βόλτες, φαί και χορός.

Η δεύτερη συνάντηση στην Ελλάδα που έγινε 30 Μαρτίου έως 4 Απριλίου 2008 στην Αθήνα , φαίνεται να ενδιέφερε περισσότερο το φιστίκι και ηταν η 14η συνάντηση της Ομάδας. Γι'αυτήν ο κ. Στυλιανίδης λέει τα εξής:
     "Τέλη Μαρτίου-αρχές Απριλίου του τρέχοντος έτους έγινε το δεύτερο συνέδριο του GREMPA στην Αθήνα. Στην οργάνωση συμμετείχαν 6 ιδρύματα με κύριο αυτό του Γεωπονικού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών. Ξεκίνησε από την Αίγινα, όπου ως γνωστόν είναι ένα κέντρο παραγωγής φιστικιών, των γνωστών φιστικιών Αιγίνης. Οικοδέσποινα η πρώην Δ/ντρια του Μπενακείου κ. Άννα Χιτζανίδου. Ανέπτυξε το θέμα: Από την Ασία στην Αίγινα. Η ιστορία του δένδρου της φιστικιάς. Ειδική αναφορά έγινε για τον Νικ. Περόγλου ο οποίος μετέφερε από την Αττική στο νησί της Αίγινας τη φιστικιά και εγκατέστησε τον πρώτο φιστικεώνα. Ακολούθησαν επισκέψεις σε φιστικεώνες και ιστορικά μνημεία του νησιού.
     Στην Αθήνα έγιναν οι επιστημονικές ανακοινώσεις (προφορικές και πόστερ). Οι 135 ανακοινώσεις από επιστήμονες της Μεσογειακής ομάδας, αλλά και άλλων χωρών που εμπεριέχονται σε ένα τόμο περιλήψεων, δείχνουν το επιστημονικό ενδιαφέρον που εκδηλώθηκε στο συνέδριο αυτό.

     Η δημιουργία αυτής της ομάδας από τον αείμνηστο Souty για ένα φτωχό και ταπεινό δένδρο, την αμυγδαλιά, έφερε τόσα αποτελέσματα και άνοιξε τόσους δρόμους, ένωσε τόσους ανθρώπους, ένωσε επιστημονικές σκέψεις και γνώσεις, υλικό, προσπάθειες και αποτελέσματα και κατέστησε τις Μεσογειακές χώρες μια επιστημονική δύναμη, η οποία με τα αρχικά της γράμματα «GREMPA” φωτίζει σήμερα ένα μεγάλο μέρος του επιστημονικού κόσμου και αποτελεί λαμπρό αστέρι πάνω από την ιστορική αυτή περιοχή, την περιοχή της Μεσογείου."

Από το πρόγραμμα της συνάντησης του 2008 στην Αθήνα φαίνεται ότι εκτός από την Αίγινα επισκέφθηκαν και την Φθιώτιδα και την Νέα Αγχίαλο. Το επιστημονικό πρόγραμμα θα το βρείτε εδώ. Με την ευκαιρία, ας δούμε τις εργασίες που παρουσιάστηκαν στην συνάντηση και αφορούν το κελυφωτό φιστίκι:
