Winegrape growers seething
Riverina and Murray Valley winegrape growers have slammed the NSW Government’s response to an industry inquiry. The NSW Government refused to make a decision on all 10 recommendations from the parliamentary inquiry into the winegrape market and prices. The delayed response by the NSW Coalition – which took eight months to consider the report – means Riverina winegrape growers no longer have terms of payment protection from their statutory authority, reports Weekly Times Now.
