Summary

A suite of project development activities was been initiated in the Plant breeding & Evaluation (PBE) pillar of the feedbase investment Plan, covering species and variety evaluation, pasture breeding, new traits & technologies and novel species.
The purpose of this brief was to appoint a consultant who will oversee the progression of these existing development activities through to the point of contracting the appropriate/agreed suite of investments needed within the PBE R&D pillar. The objective was to have, by December 31, 2011, an agreed set of PBE investments submitted into the MLA process for approval and contracting.
The project was only partially completed and so was terminated.
