    • Abstract:
      The author looks at biodiversity in an Australian context and its link to sustainability. It cites the estimated 17% increase in ecosystem loss and species decline in Australia since 1990. It discusses the efforts of wine industry leaders and pioneers to provide evidence of the benefits of biodiversity in agriculture. It also notes the bottom-line value of such benefits and the work of South Australian-based environmental consultancy Green Ochre Pty. Ltd. with many industry sectors.
