Kiwifruit Vine Health has extended its spray subsidy for a second time.
The organisation is responsible for overseeing a management plan to control the bacterial disease PSA in orchards.
Some 245 orchards have been confirmed as having the vine-killing disease since it was first discovered near Te Puke in November last year.
Kiwifruit Vine Health general manager John Burke says the cut-off date for date for growers eligible for the subsidy is now 15 July.
The extension also applies to Gisborne and northern Hawke's Bay growers.
