WGGA launches new online help for contracts

Australia’s independent winegrape growers are being urged against taking a “business as usual approach” in negotiating contracts with grape purchasers for the 2012 harvest. Wine Grape Growers Australia Executive Director Lawrie Stanford gave the warning while launching new online information tools to help growers negotiate their grape sales. The online initiative was launched last week at WGGA’s annual general meeting in Adelaide, reports Stock and Land.
