We believe that science holds the key to a world

Where hunger is a distant memory

Where farmers can make a fair living

And where food is grown in harmony with the natural world.

COVID19 Outbreak

As a result of the ongoing national emergency, the institute’s sites are currently closed to all visitors. Subject to strict safety protocols to minimise infection risk, experimental work is now continuing on our various sites. However, staff will continue working from home when not requiring access to technical areas.
