Funded Activity Summary

Prawn farming industry has reached apoint in its development where producers are advanced enough in farming parctices to be now seeking answers from R&D which will extend the industry past current constraints. The FRDC in 1995 funded the development of the Australian Prawn Farming Industry R&D Plan 1996-2005 which assisted industry to collectively focus for the first time on R&D priorities and look at returns relative to the value chain. The plan has given research agencies a clear indication of industry's five major big picture issues at which to target research proposals. APFA now wish to review and update the plan as an integral part of the process of establishing a statutory levy for R&D for the Prawn farming industry. The updated plan will be a key document in the industry's application for a Primary Industry levy for R&D.

Objectives:
1. To revise the current prawn farmers R&D plan (95/133.02)
2. Publish a 5 year R&D plan.
