Science to improve the performance of agricultural systems in response to changing environmental, cultural, societal, and economic demands.

Active Projects: 31

Our research

We aim to create more profitable and sustainable farms and agribusiness systems that respond to societal, economic, environmental and regulatory demands by harnessing innovations in agricultural science.

This helps us design diversified landscapes and enterprises that support regional economies while operating within natural resource limits, reducing environmental footprints at both farm and catchment scale and maximising the biological and economic efficiency of farm systems.
