Mainland Kiwi have organised a meeting to discuss potential pathways for new variety kiwifruit plant material to enter the South Island. All South Island kiwifruit growers are urged to attend this important meeting.

Bryan Parkes from Zespri will be presenting potential pathways and Barry O’Neil from KVH will also present to growers.

It is important that growers are fully briefed on any potential pathways and there is a strong grower mandate before any further steps are taken.

The meeting will be at the Top 10 Holiday Park conference room, 10 Fearon Street, Motueka on Thursday 22 June at midday.
