THE 2022 AGM
The Australian dried grape industry strives for innovation, ensuring its processes are efficient, sustainable and fair.
Dried Fruits Australia has created this page to ensure our members have access to trusted COVID-19 information and advice relating to the dried grape industry. It will be updated with new resources as they become available.
Industry news is also distributed through our fortnightly newsletter, Currant News. If you aren’t on our email list, you can sign up here.
DFA is monitoring the situation and working with the processors, the National Farmers’ Federation, Hort Innovation, and other federal and state government agencies to respond to issues our industry is experiencing.
While our office is closed temporarily, staff are performing their normal roles and are available to assist you over phone and email.
We understand growers have also received guidance from their processors. Please continue to communicate with them if you have any concerns or issues.
