VIDEO Clips

Here you can view a selection of clips which include :

  • Our "Grower Pespectives" DVD with local growers recounting the history of vegetable growing in Victoria

  • Integrated Pest Management - IPM, which is encouraging beneficial insects to control pests in our food crops

Further video clips on issues of interest to vegetable growers and the colourful history and success of the Victorian Vegetable Industry, will be added as they become available.

It is our hope that more Victorians will gain a better appreciation of the many challenges faced by past and present vegetable growers as they strive to produce fresh and healthy food for us each and every day.
