Purpose

Sponsorship of events and conference across the Australian & International Grains Landscape in which grain growers are directly impacted and in which they benefit from.

Overview

The funder is passionate about the Australian grains industry and value opportunities to engage with growers, researchers and other stakeholders, promote innovative and impactful RD&E, and develop industry capacity.

If you share our commitment to the Australian grains industry and want to apply for GRDC sponsorship, in your application please demonstrate how GRDC sponsorship will:

  • deliver value for GRDC and the broader Australian grains industry and community
  • promote innovation in grains RD&E
  • value-add or complement existing GRDC activities.

Limitations

The GRDC Event Sponsorship pathway is designed to support standalone events that promote engagement and visibility across the grains industry. It is not intended to fund extension activities that form part of existing GRDC R&D investments.

If your organisation already receives GRDC investment for a project, including extension and adoption milestones, you are not eligible for additional support through this sponsorship pathway. Instead, any proposed extension activities should be discussed directly with your GRDC Investment Manager to explore potential inclusion within your existing investment.

This ensures that GRDC's sponsorship support remains focused on independent events and avoids duplication of investment. Applications that do not meet this criterion will not be successful.

GRDC will consider applications from Farming Systems and Grower Groups (that do not have a current GRDC Investment) for field days, trial site walks, annual updates etc., however these activities will be considered for funding support up to the value of $5,000 annually.
