Economics and Policy Research Branch Publications

"We design and analyse policies that improve economic performance"

"We advise on ways to use Victoria's precious natural resources to achieve the greatest public benefit"

The Economics and Policy Research Branch specialises in applying contemporary economic principles to the major resource management issues relevant to the Department of Primary Industries. The Branch achieves this by working with the Divisions of DPI to analyse the advantages and disadvantages of alternative policy approaches. Members of the Branch have specialised research skills in applied policy analysis and natural resource economics. The Branch successfully competes for external funds where such investigations would be beneficial to both external funders and DPI.
