Applications open for Science and Innovation Awards grants program

“2020 has made one thing clear: there's no shortage of complex challenges facing this nation and our national agriculture, fisheries and forestry sectors,” Mr Littleproud said.

“The blueprints for success, however, are simple: work hard, work smart and invest in the next generation.

“That's why the Australian Government is funding individual grants of up to $22,000 across 10 categories to develop the best new ideas in the industry.”

Applications close at 5 pm on October 2.
