The Government introduced a passionfruit marketing levy and export charge, with effect from 1 July 2010. The levy is 20 cents per 18 litre carton of fresh passionfruit or $15 per tonne where the fruit is directed to processing. The levy is expected to raise $72,000 each year, which will be used to fund passionfruit industry marketing through Horticultural Australia Limited.
This measure was originally reported in the Economic Statement 2010.
