Demonstration of safety, palatability, and efficacy of novel, sugarcane-derived feed ingredients in ruminants

Bagasse is the pulpy fibrous material that remains after sugarcane is crushed to extract its juice. The SRA has invested in new technologies to transform it into a nutritious animal feed ingredient, and this project will trial bagasse-derived fibre as a sheep feed and model potential production and markets.

Pressurised CO2 technology (Farther Farms) and its ability to reduce reliance on a chilled Supply chain literature review

This project funds a literature review of Farther Farms, Inc and its pressurised CO2 technology that claims to support the storage and distribution of fresh foods without needing refrigeration. If proven, this technology has the benefit to add value across multiple channels and markets in Australia and globally, responding to the growth in online food delivery, meal kit programs and the importance of reducing food waste.

Scoping future LPA audit program requirements

The Livestock Production Assurance (LPA) program requires producers to provide evidence of livestock history and on-farm practices when transferring livestock through the value chain, and underpins market access for Australian red meat. Through this project, Integrity Systems Company (ISC) will identify ways to improve and digitize the LPA program to help assess core areas of risk, better target resources for audits, and gain insights across a far greater proportion of the LPA participant base.
