Title: Ecovinyards

Winegrape growers throughout Australia are being supported in their actions to enhance soil health, establish ground covers and increase functional biodiversity in their vineyards through the National EcoVineyards program. Through EcoVineyards, growers have access to new region-specific resources, regular events, the establishment of up to four demonstration sites in each participating wine region and access to Regional On-ground Coordinators (ROCs) to support growers. There are many learning opportunities and strong regional collaboration to help reduce pesticide use, future proof fruit quality, production, and the resilience of Australian vineyards. The National EcoVineyards program is funded by Wine Australia with levies from Australia’s grape growers and winemakers and matching funds from the Australian Government. The program is delivered by Retallack Viticulture Pty Ltd with significant support from regional communities. | Website |
