Completed project
Facilitating the development of the Victorian strawberry industry (BS12016)
Publication date: December 14, 2015
Delivery Partner: Victorian Strawberry Industry Development Committee
This project, which ran from 2012 to 2015, was established to continue the extension of R&D outcomes from local, national and international research to the Victorian strawberry industry through the ongoing employment of an industry development officer.
Part of the project’s value was its ability to quickly help growers become profitable and sustainable, while it also kept the broader Victorian strawberry industry up-to-date with key R&D findings and emerging trends in production.
Throughout the project, the officer facilitated state-based and international study tours, farm walks and field days, conferences, and industry training courses.
The officer also managed the data collection and analysis of on-farm variety trials and enabled this data to become available to the wider grower community in a timely fashion.
Major tasks undertaken throughout the project included…
