Grape Innovation

                   The Marciano family has been growing grapes for three generations and now has its young fourth eger to get involved. Don, Thomas and Cozzi Marciano run all their properties together and also run their own packing shed. Grape Innovation has over eight varieties of table grapes and produces export and supermarket grade fruit all while marketing their fruit them selves. 

                   "The Australian table grape market is ever changing. Australian table grapes are consumed all over the world and the world is demanding our market be the ones to bring new innovative table grapes to the market. Thats why we have stuck to growing table grapes all this time and aimed at becoming specialists at it. With so many varieties coming out now days we need to be changing our fertilising practices to suit each new variety. Thats why we use the Aurora products. We can get their custom blends made up to suit each new variety of grape we grow and its made specifically to suit that variety and the soil its grown on."

                   "There is a huge importance to make sure in table grapes you do not under fertilise but just as much enthisis on making sure you dont over fertilise. Its also very important in the growing season of table grapes that the product you are puting out will be uptaken by the plant when it needs to be. Using the Aurora liquids we have found it has improved uptake and gets into the plant when we need it to. This is very important when working with different varieties and needing different fertiliser at different times of the growing periods." Tomas Marciano, Director - Grape Innovation

                   "We have grown our business over three generations and dont have all of our properties together at the one block. We also use different fertigation setups depending on the age of the vines and the size of the blocks. Its been very practical to be able to pull up to a block with its own custom blend inside and fertigate with liquid. The old way with technical fertiliser would take a lot more time and was hard to tell if the the whole block was treated properly." -Cozzi Marciano Director Grape Innovation
