Regional Extension Managers
The Regional Extension Managers work with existing extension providers, industry and potential future co-investment partners to amplify the outcomes of research and development levy investments.
The role of the Managers is varied, but with a sole focus on delivering results that can be directly applied to horticulture businesses. They leverage available industry data and intel to guide their activities and priorities.
They are listed below for each region and always keen for a chat. You can also read more about their backgrounds and careers in extension in their profiles here.
