The South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) provides research and development services to the state government, commercial clients and research partners to help make South Australia’s primary industries and regions internationally competitive and ecologically sustainable.

Our programs are designed to increase the productivity, sustainability and adaptability of the state’s agriculture, food and wine, fisheries and aquaculture and bioscience enterprises, create opportunities for market growth, address barriers to growth and provide applied solutions. Currently, our focus is on:

• Setting up a greater commercialisation capability and ethos
• Working with industry to identify and develop priorities and bring about practice change
• Building even stronger global connections to capitalise on emerging trends
• Better understanding and developing SARDI’s potential revenue streams and investment portfolio
