A world first for North-East Victoria!
An early warning smoke taint detection system will be ready for action next summer.
The network of 100 smoke sensor stations (called WISDs – Wine Industry Smoke Detectors) produced in Melbourne. It will record, analyse and report the exposure of wine grapes to individual smoke events and accumulated seasonal smoke exposure.
An electronic dashboard will then transmit information back to grapegrowers, allowing them to make timely decisions around grape testing, vineyard management and winemaking strategies to manage smoke effects.
