Horticulture Policy
What we do
Our objective is to assist and facilitate the growth and development of a self-reliant, competitive and innovative Australian horticultural industry in a rapidly evolving global marketplace. Strategies to achieve this include:
- Development of internationally competitive horticultural supply chains
- Removal of impediments to export market access, and facilitation of exports
- Support for industry ownership of key services
- Assistance with market development projects and programs to increase consumption of horticulture products, and
- Encouraging innovation along the value chain.
For the horticulture industry to be competitive requires efficient production techniques, sustainable natural resource management, the development of supply and marketing alliances, high quality products and marketing to meet market trends and consumer preferences.
