DPI Scientists
We place a high priority on world-class science by conducting innovative, practical and focused research servicing the needs of Victoria's primary and energy industries.
We fund important research, development, demonstration, commercialisation and practice change that would not occur sufficiently if left entirely to the market.
Our innovation programs seek to provide various benefits,
notably:
- improving primary industry productivity, environmental impacts and animal welfare
- developing new food export markets
- improving knowledge of the State's geology
- reducing greenhouse emissions and water use.
