This weeks weather has added to the ongoing challenges we know many are facing. NZKGI continues to provide kiwifruit growers with helpful resources and advice, and will release more as it comes to hand – do look out for their weekly Friday updates for the latest and reach out for support should you wish to.

A reminder also the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) On Farm Support service offers on-the-ground support for farmers and growers in the regions. Support is available with all aspects of orchard planning, including with preparing and responding to adverse events. It is a free service accessible here, by phone at 0800 00 83 33 or email.
