R&D Project Snapshot
Passionfruit industry communications program (PF22001)
Status: Mid-way through
The overall aim of the industry communication programme is to provide an efficient and effective methodology to communicate relevant and timely information across and within all grower groups, the supply chain members and associated stakeholders within the Australian passionfruit industry. Of the four priority outcomes laid out in the Strategic Industry Plan (SIP) for Passionfruit 2022-26, this project will directly support;
OUTCOME 1: Industry supply, productivity and sustainability
- By providing structured communication mechanisms to accelerate widespread use of existing and new R&D findings and proven management practices that will help growers reduce the costs associated with pests, weeds and diseases
OUTCOME 3: Extension and capability
- To manage knowledge, relationships, systems and processes required to communicate and collaborate effectively with internal and external stakeholders
This proposal will deliver the continued communication mechanisms required for the Australian passionfruit levy-payer industry to support the achievement of the priority outcomes laid out in the SIP, through a combination of well organised field days, timely and relevant written communications and the dissemination of best practice benchmarked from best-in-class industries.
