River Murray floodwaters wiped out Peter Singh's Renmark vineyard late last year — and now he is faced with the difficult question of what to do next: rebuild or sell?

Grapes have died and owners are questioning whether to replant

"We've got to dig out more than 60–70 per cent of our vineyard to replant it — if I replant it," he said.Peter Singh is not sure he will replant his vines. "Approximately half of our members have small holdings and rely on off-farm income and predominantly tourism, such as cellar doors and accommodation, which are all affected," she told the SA Country Hour.David Hartley runs River Shack Rentals – a company that manages dozens of rentals along the river – and said the major clean-up needed after the floods would cause some people to sell, but the vast majority of his clients wanted to stay.

Kym Temby's Mannum holiday home was largely spared by the floodwaters, but he still lost about $30,000 in cancelled bookings.
