Dear Wine Producer, APC Wine Producers’ Committee Outcomes from 2020 Vintage collection The collection of the fee for service (FFS) charge for the 2020 Vintage is now complete. Thank you to all producers for your support and participation during the year. The committee is pleased to be able to advise that the total tonnes across all regions for the 2020 vintage came very close to predictions (Actual: 45,968, Predicted: 47,420). The 2020 Vintage was lower than the 2019 Vintage by 8%. The biosecurity charge (0.05c per tonne) continues to be collected from all producers. The amount collected so far is $7,136. All funds collected via the charge will be retained in a biosecurity account to be accessed in the circumstances of an event which affects the industry. Each Association has undertaken targeted work in their GI’s, but some of the general activities undertaken by, or on behalf of, all GI’s include:
Established a co-funded partnership with the State government to support WA producers in profitably growing export markets. In collaboration with other agricultural industry groups advocated to ensure COVID19 restrictions were set with industry requirements considered. Provided timely updates to producers regarding complying with COVID 19 restrictions and industry matters in general. Worked with the Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions to establish late season burn-off protocol to ensure late harvested fruit was not affected by prescribed burning. Engaged with national wine industry bodies on a variety of matters, such as Wine Taxation and the mandatory pregnancy label, thereby enhancing WA representation and visibility on the national scale. Engaged with state and national bodies to understand and address labour issues with respect to COVID-19 and in general.
The following pages provide some of the data generated through this years’ collection. The Committee is hopeful that you will find some value in this data for your business purposes. The committee invites you to please contact a committee member from your GI region if you have any matters you would like to discuss directly with the committee, or contact an association member if you would like to propose an action or get further information on an Agricultural Produce Commission – 3 Baron-Hay Court, South Perth, 6151 Agricultural Produce Commission Act 1988

action undertaken by an association where that action was funded by FFS money – contact details for both committee members and associations are included below. We would also like to make all wine producers aware that the terms of all members of the current APC wine producers’ committee expire on 31 May 2022. Nominations will be called for in April 2022, but if you would like to register your interest in joining the committee, or if you would just like to discuss the committee and what is involved in being a committee member, please contact Ingrid Behr on apcmanager@dpird.wa.gov.au or (08) 9368 3127 – we would love to hear from you! The work of the APC wine committee, through the wine associations, is strengthened by support and involvement of producers. Your feedback and suggestions are important to keeping this a truly representative initiative, where benefits can be enjoyed by all.
