New Support to Help Wheat Exporters Develop Markets
Source: Australia. Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Media Release.
"The Rudd Government is helping wheat exporters develop markets for Australian growers to maximise the benefits of the new, competitive wheat export marketing system. Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Minister Tony Burke today urged exporters to apply for grants under the Wheat Export Technical Market Support Grants Program. Funds under the program are available to all exporters, with priority to be given to new or smaller exporters or niche marketers. It is designed to support innovative export ideas which establish long-term sales relationships, rather than one-off sales or new product development."
