New Resources on Non-chemical Control of Vineyard Weeds

To support growers in the adoption of non-chemical weed control practices, the Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI), with funding from Landcare Australia, has developed a range of resources, accessible from a new Non-chemical weed management webpage on the AWRI website.

The resources include several case studies and a decision tool to help growers make decisions about which non-chemical weed control options are best suited to their vineyard. The intention of the decision tool is to narrow down the list of options to consider, rather than providing a single recommendation.

Non-chemical weed control workshops were also delivered to more than 300 participants in 11 regions and a webinar was presented to more than 450 participants. The webinar recording, along with all other AWRI webinars, can be accessed from the AWRI’s YouTube channel.
