Research & Development
Search MLA's R&D reports
MLA invests in both on-farm and off-farm research and development projects with a wide range of project partners, including producer groups, peak industry councils, the CSIRO, leading Australian universities and international research centres.
The R&D program is mainly funded by producer levies and matched by the Federal Government. Additional levies from processing, lotfeeding, and live export sectors support red meat supply chain projects. Non-levy funding comes from industry partners via the MLA Donor Company. In 2025-26, MLA plans to invest $328.6 million in research, development and marketing activities across 17 program areas.
