Plant & Food Research works with horticultural and agricultural industries, as well as regional councils and regulatory bodies, to minimise the impact of land use on the natural environment whilst optimising yield, quality and economic performance. This includes optimising the use of pesticides, fertilisers and water, as well as monitoring the impact of activities on ecosystems and soil health.
