FFI Strategies
Future Farm Industries CRC focuses on the key industries of meat, grain, wool, wood products and bio-energy, and the 60M ha of dryland farming in temperate Australia (WA, SA, Victoria and NSW) where the greatest gains are to be made.
Three interconnected strategies guide the activities of FFI CRC:
Adoption and Commercialisation
The CRC’s stakeholders range across agribusiness and manufacturing companies, farm production groups, catchment management authorities, agriculture and natural resource management advisers in the delivery of new knowledge and technology to farmers. It will take full advantage of the highly developed extension, training and knowledge dissemination services of industry R&D corporations, government agencies and the rural media.
Key activities are:
-
Commercialisation for private sector delivery: products, services and processes that are suitable for private sector delivery under licence or other commercial arrangements
-
Improved delivery through partner organisations: working with partner industry organisations and extension agencies, the CRC will develop improved methods for commercialisation and enhanced adoption of its technologies
-
New knowledge partners: knowledge exchange and participatory research products that meet shared goals and enhance the adoption of the CRC’s technologies.
Adoption and Commercialisation is a core function of FFI CRC and a full description is in  Section 2 of the Business Plan.
The latest information on activities is available through the Adoption and Commercialisation bulletins:
