RESEARCH is recognised as a major driver of innovation, productivity growth, improved sustainability and international competiveness.
The Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation (QAAFI) is a unique Australian research institute, and among only a handful of similar scientific organisations anywhere in the world.
Formed from the combined scientific expertise of researchers from The University of Queensland and the Queensland Government, QAAFI is comprised of three inter-related research centres with a focus on the challenges facing tropical and sub-tropical food, fibre and agribusiness sectors.
