Budwood registration
Budwood suppliers must be KVH-registered. Click on the button below to register, or call us on 0800 665 825.
All budwood suppliers must follow budwood movement controls and complete and submit to KVH a Psa-V Risk Management Plan. These are both available in the KVH Protocol: Budwood.
Additional information
Important information for grafters
It is essential to maintain traceability of budwood especially when dealing with multiple KPINs. Read more about managing biosecurity risks when grafting.
Ensure strict hygiene protocols are followed when grafting. Ideally all grafting tools should be cleaned and sanitised between vines to avoid the risk of contamination and/or disease transfer between scions and stumps. Good hygiene practices may limit or prevent the spread of Psa from vine to vine and between orchards.
