SA: Strike a balance to save the wine industry
SA: Strike a balance to save the wine industry
Jan 23, 2013 6
(BDLive) - How do you make a small fortune? Start with a big fortune and buy a wine farm.
That’s the conventional wisdom of wine farming, as viewed from the city slickers’ club. But I also know serious wine farmers who set out to harvest economics beyond the perfect cultivar.
Wine is a big international export business for South Africa. The multibillion-rand grape and deciduous fruit industry employs hundreds of thousands of people and is a big earner of foreign exchange.
Strikes are not always about economics, but the economics of a strike can create an insoluble deadlock.
