Funded Activity Summary

Oysters Australia has identified the need for development and delivery of a robust, ongoing mechanism to extend and build on outputs from Seafood CRC research.

The CRC RAC has indicated that it is interested in testing grower group models as extension and communication mechanisms for Seafood CRC research investments.

Discussions with oyster growers from Tasmania, SA and NSW indicate that many would value the support to form and establish such groups but lack the time or knowledge to do so effectively.

This project is designed to deliver against the dual CRC and industry needs indentified above by providing the necessary initial support to establish a number of oyster industry grower groups and to build into these groups the independent capability to maintain the on-going, peer-learning opportunities that grower groups can facilitate.

The project will report on and evaluate the success of trialing these grower groups.
