VINEYARD MANAGEMENT
Down to Earth manages 25+ vineyards in Western Australia. Due to our unique in house management approach, we are able to model a management system to suit each individual vineyards specific requirements and goals.
Utilising our comprehensive range of dedicated people and full range of the latest vineyard equipment we can offer a host options, alternatives and potential cost savings that many of our management properties currently enjoy. We believe this is one of the reasons why many of our client’s have been with us for several years and why we continue to take on new vineyards each year. Our aim is to professionally manage our vineyards to produce the best results for both you the owner and the winery.
Our team of viticulturists and vineyard managers will inspect a perspective client’s vineyards/properties to obtain all relevant information and details that will allow the team to formulate a comprehensive and personalised vineyard management plan including detailed budgets and cash flows, potential sales, and profit analysis and viticultural strategies to maximize each vineyards yield, quality and bottom line.

- Canopy management

- Pruning plan and recommendations
- Pest & disease management including spraying and monitoring programs.
- Weed management
