Vineyard Training Stakes NZ | Reusable Steel Stakes

Vineyard Training Stake

A stronger, longer-lasting alternative to bamboo vineyard stakes.

Ag-Steel Vineyard Training Stakes are designed for reliable vine training and new block development. Made from galvanised G250 steel, these 1.2m stakes are stiffer and more durable than traditional bamboo, while being suitable for use with under-vine machinery.

Because they can be reused, they offer a practical, long-term solution for vineyard development – use them year after year and move them to new blocks as required.

Why choose steel over bamboo?

Bamboo training stakes can be an economical initial purchase, but they are generally intended for shorter-term use. Ag-Steel Vineyard Training Stakes are designed to be reused, making them a longer-term investment for vineyard operators.

Their increased stiffness provides better support for developing vines, while their durability means they can be removed, stored and reused when establishing another block.

For vineyards looking beyond the next planting season, reusable steel stakes make sense.
