Frontiers is a landmark initiative created in collaboration with growers and industry leaders to tackle the most pressing challenges in horticulture. It focuses on unlocking transformative opportunities and delivering practical solutions that make a real difference on the ground.

A key feature of this initiative is the Australian-Grown Innovation program.

The Australian-Grown Innovation program is designed to drive innovation that will tackle the most pressing challenges in horticulture. The Australian-Grown Innovation program will mentor Australian growers and those across the horticulture supply chain to turn great ideas into commercially viable products and services that make a real difference on the ground.

Australian growers are some of the country’s most innovative entrepreneurs. They’re on the frontline of horticulture and know better than anyone the problems that need solving. The Australian-Grown Innovation program equips growers with the mentoring and tools needed to take their farm changing ideas from vision to reality.
