The draft Citrus Strategic R&D Plan will circulate for one final round of industry comment before being submitted to Horticulture Australia Limited (HAL) for approval.
The new Plan will direct industry R&D investment during the next five years, from 2012 to 2017. During this period HAL will oversee citrus R&D investment of between $25 and $30 million. This will comprise levy funds, voluntary contributions and matched funding from the Federal Government.
