Have you grafted to another variety recently? Have you been in touch with Vinehealth Australia to let us know?
Vinehealth Australia is required under the Phylloxera and Grape Industry Act 1995 to maintain a complete and accurate Register of vineyards in South Australia of 0.5 hectares or larger in size. Changes to your vines, including your varietal mix, must be reported within three months of when they occur, as required by the Act.
If you are changing the scion variety you currently have through any method of field grafting, we need to know what variety you changed from and to, and when this occurred.
Note that you don’t need to report your reworking when you’re not changing the scion variety or clone.
It’s best to check and update your vineyard planting records now via the Kiosk rather than waiting for the Annual Record Return in December 2024.
In order to ensure our records of your plantings are as accurate as possible, contact our friendly Systems Manager, Jo Bainbridge on 08 8273 0550 or send Jo an email at admin@vinehealth.com.au.
