The handbook is available for download in four different categories here. See page 212 of the fruit handbook for dried grape information.

Hort Innovation’s strategy consultation workshop in Mildura is coming up on Monday 25 March. 

At the workshop, growers will have an opportunity to learn more about how their levy funds are invested and freely discuss their views and ideas on how Hort Innovation can do it better in future to meet the current needs and priorities of the sector. The outcomes will be integrated into the development of their new strategic plan, to be released mid 2019.
