This is a temporary webpage to access the department’s resources from Hort Connections 2026. This webpage will be available until 1 September 2026.
We work with scientists, farmers and industry to maximise growth and new market opportunities for Australian agriculture, both locally and internationally.
We prevent, monitor and respond to pests and diseases that threaten our agricultural industries, economy and environment. We encourage innovation, research and investment in new technologies that will support a sustainable future. We negotiate new market access to support industry growth.
Our focus is on being future ready, maintaining Australia’s reputation as a grower of safe, high-quality produce and enhancing our agriculture industry now and into the future.
Below are resources on some of our work which may be of interest to Hort Connections attendees.
