Updates on agricultural biotechnology made easy
The Agricultural Biotechnology Council of Australia (ABCA) invites you to join its email list to receive regular updates on current and emerging issues in agricultural biotechnology in Australia.
To register and receive ABCA updates, please email ABCAProjects@bigpond.com with ‘subscribe’ in the subject line.
ABCA is a new joint initiative of AusBiotech, CropLife Australia, Grains Research and Development Corporation and the National Farmers’ Federation. It has been established to help shape a new era for Australian agriculture by encouraging informed debate on biotechnology through the dissemination of credible, balanced, science-based information.
Through the creation and sharing of research and knowledge, ABCA’s work aims to place biotechnology and gene technology into context as another invaluable innovation for Australian agriculture, ensuring that science guides public policy for the future of farming.
