Episode Details

South Australia’s wine industry gets a $108 million lifeline as the state fights to revive a sector battered by oversupply, plummeting prices, and lingering trade woes—especially the China dispute. A $100 million loan program lets struggling vineyards transition to other crops or higher-value uses, with two years of interest-free repayment and low rates. Another $5 million targets overseas expansion, particularly into Canada, while $675,000 funds a premium food and wine marketing push. With production at a 25-year low and grape prices down 6%, this package is seen as a critical first step toward recovery—and even includes funds to tackle surplus wine and timber post waste.
