Capacity Building for Winegrape Growers project (2008)

The Capacity Building for Australia’s Winegrape Growers project was initiated via a Deed of Agreement between the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) and Wine Grape Growers’ Australia (WGGA) in June 2007.  The project was designed to build the capacity of the winegrape sector in line with the key findings and recommendations of the Taking Stock and Setting Directions for the Australian Wine Grape Industry report (December 2006).

The project had four major components:

1. Wine Industry Strategic Plan review and gap analysis
2. Vineyard Business Development Program (VineBiz)
3. Sector innovation
4. Sector Structure and Leadership

The project was carried out on behalf of WGGA by Scholefield Robinson Horticultural Services.
