WA wine industry launches biosecurity week of action

Western Australia’s wine industry is reportedly strengthening its frontline defence against pests and diseases with the launch of WA Wine Industry Biosecurity Week from 8-12 June 2026. There will be a coordinated series of events held throughout the week, “designed to raise awareness, build capability and protect the long-term sustainability of the industry”. Led by Wines of Western Australia (WoWA) in partnership with Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) and Wine Australia, the week will bring together growers, winemakers and regional stakeholders to “improve preparedness, strengthen on-farm biosecurity practices and help protect the long-term sustainability of WA’s wine sector”.
