Mothball vs removal: vineyard decision guide
Deciding whether to mothball a vineyard or remove its vines is a complex process. It requires balancing short-term needs against long-term strategy and weighing factors from economics to vineyard conditions. BRI has developed a generalised vineyard decision guide and model economic analysis to provide members with a greater understanding of the potential considerations when making business decisions for their vineyard. Ultimately, it is up to individual businesses to decide what strategy to implement to suit specific business needs, and it is always recommended to source expert financial, market and viticultural advice.
