THE BROTHERS responsible for an innovative trailer have been awarded the inaugural 'Vinnovation' award for winegrape growers in South Australia. Bill and Phil Longbottom, independent winegrape growers from Padthaway in the South East, were selected ahead of the other finalists for the trailer's potential for adoption across all growing regions, its ability to directly improve profits and its relatively inexpensive cost, according to Peter Hackworth, the Wine Grape Council of SA executive officer.The tandem-axle trailer has been equipped with inbuilt scales so that bins are weighed as they are filled in the vineyard, allowing more accurate quantities to then be delivered to wineries, among other benefits. The brothers built the trailer for under$6000.
