Across horticulture support for export MRL compliance
7 March 2022Multi-industry export program (Vegetables, Onions and Melons)
13 April 2022Spanning for six months, this project educated children about the nutritional benefits of Australian onions through the Phenomenom resources which demonstrate the link between soil health and gut health, as well as umami and satiety for primary school aged children.
The suite of free resources was delivered across primary schools in Australia in various subject areas to increase positive exposure to Australian horticulture products such as vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds.
In the home environment, Phenomenom was openly received by both parents and children as an engaging and insightful resource, helping to positively shift perceptions, to create conversation and to influence the type and variety of vegetables consumed.
This project has been funded by Hort Innovation, using the research and development levies listed below and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.
