“…In some wine countries, such in Australia and New Zealand, the issue of biosecurity-which is felt as a general priority at a country level-is proven to influence travelers [44]. New Zealand is widely recognized as the greenest wine-producing country; the wine country development plan follows the regional branding strategy which holds a permanent focus on sustainability [45].…”

Abstract:The literature on tourism and events is endless; a niche in this wide research field is represented by food and wine research. The growing interest shown by wine tourists has nurtured the proliferation of wine events and the growth of the wine tourism business; as a consequence, academicians' interest in this issue has increased. At the same time, research on tourism and events is an evolving field and it has moved from a main economic focus to a broader perspective: some scholars have highlighted how the growing interest towards green and sustainable practices has stimulated academic research and a lot has been done on the management of environmental issues. Given the resonance of wine tourism and the role it has for local and rural development, the interest towards the issue of sustainability in wine is more than warranted. Thus, this paper aims to provide some useful insights about where research has gone and where it is going; a thorough literature review has been performed.

“…For example, while there are some studies of forest recreationists and visitors, we identified no studies of air or sea passenger awareness. Studies from other sectors have shown that this group presents a risk and that they may not fully understand the requirements of customs officials and practices (Hall 2005) but they remain largely unanalysed. Another significant omission from the evidence is assessments of pest awareness among key groups at the source of invasionse.g.…”

The dangers posed to wooded environments from tree pests introduced by the expansion of international trade in live plants and the continued use of wood packaging in transporting materials have been widely accepted. A lack of awareness of the issues amongst key stakeholders involved in the movement of these materials can hamper an effective response as their unaltered behaviours continue to have unintended consequences. Better communication and engagement is needed to enrol this wider range of actors, such as plant buyers, traders and woodland owners, in preventative action or mitigation of tree pest impacts. However, as this review paper shows, current published evidence on awareness levels and effective engagement methods is limited, and lessons must be sought from research into other closely related issues such as invasive plants. We provide a summary of this available evidence, related to key stakeholder groupings, their levels of awareness and current modes of information provision and reception. It show what can at best be described as mediocre levels of awareness, and highlights the role of traditional media, such as television and newspapers, as sources of information. It further notes the urgent need for research to more fully map the tree health stakeholder landscape and to further our understanding of how to increase awareness and effect changes in behaviour.

“…Such perceptions are only enhanced by the direct-i.e., visits to wineries-and indirect-i.e., the purchase of local wine and food in restaurants-roles of winegrowing to tourism in such regions. Yet, the development of more sustainable winegrowing operations, including the role of wine tourism, is dependent not only on the size and economics of individual wineries, but also on the ability of wineries to deal with inherent risks that are borne from engagement with visitors to vineyards and wineries, such as biosecurity risks [8,9]. As a number of vineyards and wine regions have experienced, the introduction and spread of viticultural diseases and harmful vectors such as phylloxera and Pierce's disease [8] could potentially eradicate the work that has been done to encourage the adoption of sustainable practices and the innovations that may arise as a result of sustainability initiatives.…”

New Zealand Winegrowers Attitudes and Behaviours towards Wine Tourism and Sustainable Winegrowing

2018

There are significant economic, environmental, social, and marketing issues that exist from the supply-side perspective in response to sustainability. This study examines New Zealand winegrowers in terms of their attitudes and behaviours towards wine tourism and sustainable wine production. A national survey was conducted at the end of 2015, which was the fourth such survey to be undertaken as part of a longitudinal study of wine tourism in New Zealand. This survey drew on issues of wine and biosecurity, climate change, and eco-labelling, as well as wine tourism. These issues were examined within the context of three key drivers of sustainability: the physical aspects of sustainable wine production, the internal drivers within wine businesses for the adoption of sustainable practices, and the external regulatory aspects that govern the adoption of sustainable wine production practices. The findings indicate that there were substantial concerns with the perceived value provided by both wine tourism and sustainable winegrowing practices. These concerns exist at both the firm level and with the governing bodies that are responsible for implementing sustainable winegrowing initiatives. Unless this perception of the value of sustainability within the New Zealand wine industry is altered in the future, it appears that there will continue to be an ongoing issue as to how sustainable winegrowing initiatives are implemented.
