Horticulture Innovation Australia (Hort Innovation) is a not-for-profit, grower-owned Research and Development Corporation (RDC) for Australia’s $16.3 billion horticulture industry.

4. Enhance industry and R&D decision-making and progress evaluation by:

a. Consolidating survey efforts to reduce grower burden
