The Australian Government has announced the opening of the $13 million Advancing Pest Animal and Weed Control Solutions competitive grant round.

The funding for this grant round is to advance a range of breakthrough control solutions that challenge traditional approaches for the control of priority established pest animals or weeds, by researching and developing new practices, methods and tools, or adapting existing ones for use in new or different ways.

The grant round is targeting organisations with a proven research and development capacity, that will target priority established pest animals and weeds.

This grant round forms part of the Australian Government’s $30.3 million investment into managing established pest animals and weeds under the four year Established Pest Animal and Weed Management Pipeline.

If this opportunity is of interest, you are encouraged to visit the Community Grants Hub Website, GrantConnect website or the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment’s website for more information.

Applications close on 25 September.
