Berry industry development
Supporting our delivery of the national MT18020 Berries Australia project, a full-time berry Industry Development Officer position has been funded for the first time. Mark Salter can be contacted at BerryIDO@fruitgowerstas.org.au or call 0400 100 593.
The aim of this project is to communicate best practice to all berry growers and improve their knowledge and skills to enable them to adopt R&D outcomes.
This is facilitated through:
- workshops and field days; and
- regular communication of issues and items important for berry growers to help grow their business.
