Explore almonds as a diversification opportunity for wine growers.

With increasing cost pressures and climate uncertainty, many growers are exploring ways to strengthen and future-proof their operations. Almonds are emerging as a viable diversification option, with encouraging results already seen in the Stellenbosch and Durbanville regions.

Join us for a practical session covering the key aspects of almond farming - from economics and cultivars to water requirements and processing. Ideal for wine growers looking to diversify and learn from real local experience.

Topics include:

  • Economics of almond farming
  • Cultivars and rootstocks
  • New cultivar developments (incl. Yorizane)
  • Water and nutritional requirements
  • Health benefits
  • Processing facilities

Light lunch is included.
