Funded Activity Summary

If Australian primary industry sectors are to compete and succeed internationally, producers must
establish themselves at the forefront of production, distribution and management.
Nuffield Australia's scholarship program gives primary producers the opportunity to learn about the
forces shaping international trade policy in key markets, the issues behind consumer sentiment, and the
technological advances being implemented by producers in other countries. The information that
Scholars gather while overseas helps them make rational management decisions that position their
enterprises so they benefit from international opportunities as they arise.
This project addresses FRDC outcome: The knowledge and skills of people in and supporting the
Australian fishing industry, and in the wider community,are developed and used so that Australians
