2008/764 Australian Prawn Farmers Association research and development planning, implementation and extension



By Helen Jenkins

 

This project providedfinancial support to the Australian Prawn Farmer's Association (APFA) to ensure that APFA members work collaboratively to implement research and development results delivered through the Cooperative Research Centre.

The major focus of the project is to establish on going systems and mechanisms to fill this gap and in so doing provide valuable information to other participants regarding ways to achieve business outcomes through the research and development conducted by the Cooperative Research Centre. The project officer will also provide support to the CRC funded benchmarking project that is already producing useful information requiring dissemination to and consideration by the APFA members.

 

This project focused on

  1. Developing an effective mechanism to commercialise the prawn genetics research and development.
  2. Establishing the mechanisms to implement the results from the initial benchmarking project and any subsequent projects that arise from it relating to adding market value to Australian farmed prawns.
