Beef CRC Delivers Research
AUSTRALIA - By June 2012, the Beef CRC will deliver key outcomes from the CRC’s four priority research areas for the beef industry.To facilitate this, the CRC has developed a Northern
and Southern network of champions consisting
of State Department of Primary industry officers,
researchers and scientists, industry representatives
and private consultants.
The Train-the-Champion process aims to ensure
peer-reviewed outcomes of Beef CRC research is accurately
distilled into key messages directly relevant
for the Australian beef industry.
The Champions select a topic and analyse the
most recent Beef CRC research available on that
topic. They are encouraged to engage directly with
the project scientists about their research as well as
to seek out new material relevant to their topic.
As part of the process, each Champion is asked
to produce a peer-reviewed and Beef CRC-endorsed
fact sheet on his or her specialist topic. The fact
sheets include case study information and economic
data, where it is available and appropriate.
The fact sheets prepared by the Champions network
will be made freely available, along with other
Beef CRC material, via an online legacy website, and
as part of a presenter’s kit.
