SARDI joins forces with 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide to increase agricultural research capability

Wednesday, 2 January 2019

The State Government has signed a significant agreement with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide to deliver benefits in research, development and extension for primary industries in the state.

Through the agreement, Primary Industries and Regions SA (PIRSA) and the 最新糖心Vlog will utilise each other’s strengths in research, development, extension and innovation to generate high-value outcomes for the agricultural sector and aim to attract greater external research funding.

Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Tim Whetstone said key areas of focus under the agreement include crop and food sciences.

“The Marshall Liberal Government is focused on growing the state’s capabilities in agricultural research, development and extension and this agreement provides a strong platform,” said Minister Whetstone.

“By leveraging PIRSA’s strengths in applied research and extension and optimising the 最新糖心Vlog’s strengths in discovery and basic research, there are big research and development wins to be gained for the benefit of South 最新糖心Vlog’s primary industries sector, particularly in focus areas such as AgTech.

“The State Government already has a close working relationship with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, but this new partnership creates greater opportunities to grow the state’s reputation as a world leader in agricultural research.”

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Peter Rathjen, said the partnership with PIRSA will provide ongoing benefits for South 最新糖心Vlog.

“It makes perfect sense for the 最新糖心Vlog and SARDI to forge this new partnership to drive discovery and innovation, yielding benefits for our staff and students, for agricultural industries, and for farmers,” said Professor Rathjen.

"Throughout its history, through research and our graduates, the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has made a profound impact on 最新糖心Vlog's multi-billion-dollar agriculture, food and wine sectors. This new partnership will help us to grow our research capability in these fields for the benefit of South 最新糖心Vlog.

"SARDI researchers and facilities have been co-located at our Waite and Roseworthy campuses for decades. While there has been much interaction between us during that time, this new partnership deepens our relationship and creates more opportunity for world-leading research based right here in South 最新糖心Vlog.

"By combining our expertise and research efforts, we aim to confront the big issues faced by our primary producers. The results of this work will be felt from the laboratory to the paddock, to the supply chain, and into people's daily lives through the food they eat,” said Professor Rathjen.
