Wine project to investigate yield variability funded by state government

A project aimed at targeting ways to reduce yield variability in Tasmanian wine crops has been granted funding from the state government’s collaboration fund. The funding was announced by deputy premier Jeremy Rockliff at the Wine Tasmania annual conference in Hobart on Tuesday. “Tasmania’s wine and food is a key motivation for many people to visit Tasmania and our tourism numbers are booming as a result,” Mr Rockliff said.
