Western Australia’s agricultural research, development and extension capabilities are being reinvigorated. Launched in July 2022, the WA Agricultural Research Collaboration (WAARC) is working with industry to develop applied research programs focused on emerging industry issues.
The Collaboration is also focused on creating opportunities for the next generation of talented scientists to develop meaningful and impactful programs of work with industry-supported postgraduate positions.
The initiative is backed by a $25 million State Government investment over three years, and a $10 million commitment from the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC).
WAARC aims to secure more than $50 million in additional funding from collaborators and industry-based research and development corporations, making this an anticipated $100 million plus investment for WA agricultural research.
