The development of a national, grape-industry strategy for the implementation of a national standard for grapevine certification - Phase 1

The lack of a national standard for the health of planting material in Australia means that growers have no guarantee that the planting material being supplied to them by nurseries is disease free or of a certain provenance. Phase 1 of this project will address the framework required to underpin a new national standard for grapevine planting material, which will be customer-focused, independently audited, transparent, aspirational, inclusive and allow for continuous improvement.

Consumer refrigerator data, behaviour and waste reduction for red meat

Most consumers still check if meat is still safe to eat by looking at the use by date on the packaging. This is considered to be outdated technology, and this project will gather new temperature data for all commodities that require chilled storage, and combine this with information on consumer behaviour to set new standards of food storage and information.

Transformational crop protection - Innovative RNAi biopesticides for management of sugarcane root feeding pests

This project aims to deliver proof-of concept for delivering RNA biopesticides as an innovative non-GM, non-toxic, ecologically safe topical application for the control of canegrubs as serious pests of sugarcane. It will involve identification of the best target genes for RNAi based biopesticides for both cane grubs and soldier fly and testing the RNAi based biopesticides in feeding assays /glasshouse against canegrubs.

Integrated management of grapevine phylloxera: Phase II

Phylloxera is a tiny yellow aphid that feeds on the roots of grapevines, killing them. This project is a next-phase research program to help protect Australian vineyards cope with phylloxera through more effective surveillance, improved selection of resilient rootstocks, disinfestation procedures and knowledge of Australian phylloxera ecology.
