National Pasture Genebank

The South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) manages the Australian Pastures Genebank (APG). It is the custodian of more than 70,000 accessions of tropical and temperate pasture and forage genetic resources. The APG is Australia’s first national pasture and forage genetic resource centre. Dairy Australia contributes funds to maintain and develop the genebank, alongside several other RDCs and State governments.
