Dried Fruits Australia’s most recent field walks displayed Warren Lloyd and Ashley Johnstone’s mechanical winter pruning machines, while Rowena Smart hosted growers at an event to discuss the savings that can be made by using a latch for the Shaw swingarm trellis.

The Australian Table Grape Association recently hosted two half-day irrigation management workshops in the Swan Valley, presented by Agriculture Victoria irrigation specialist Jeremy Giddings. The practical workshops were well attended by Swan Valley producers and service providers.
