Horticultural Netting Grants for Victorian Horticulturalists – Australia

Deadline: 08-Apr-24

The Horticultural Netting Infrastructure (Expansion) Program provides grants to protect horticultural production by installation of netting infrastructure.

This includes protection of horticultural production to address the issues of damage by weather or pest incursion.

The purpose of the Horticultural Netting Infrastructure (Expansion) Program is to provide funding to eligible primary producers of commercial horticulture crops, excluding wine grapes, for the purchase and installation of new netting over established production areas (a ‘project’) to increase productivity. Horticulture means plant agriculture, which includes production of flowers, fruits and nuts, vegetables and herbs, as well as ornamental trees.

The Commonwealth Government has provided an additional $11.22 million to expand its apple and pear trial program for a total program budget of $15.9 million. The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Change (DEECA) has agreed to implement the Program in Victoria on behalf of the Commonwealth Government.
