The Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) has announced the Queensland and NSW recipients of infrastructure grants delivered in 2023 to boost capacity in grains research, development and extension (RD&E).

The grants are part of a $20 million national investment program to build Australia’s long-term grains research capacity and support the enduring profitability of the nation’s grain growers.

Irrigation Farmers Network was successful in securing a portion of the infrastructure grant to purchase a new Wintersteiger harvester.
