Hort Innovation engages independent consultants to evaluate the impact of their R&D investments, providing insights into the type and magnitude of impacts that are being generated across the company’s strategic levy programs.
This is a key piece of investment evaluation work, and a yearly process for the company, which began through the projects Ex-post impact assessment (MT18011) and Horticulture Impact Assessment Program 2020/21 to 2022/23 (MT21015).
The consultants will draw on a random sample of levy-funded projects each year, adhering to the Council of Rural Research and Development Corporations (CRRDC) guidelines to assess the economic, social, governance and environmental impacts of these projects.
Four grower-focused case studies will also be developed each year to illustrate and communicate how these projects have delivered impact.
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.
