Our Partnership Program
The Rosewood Research Partnership Program is central to the mission of Rosewood Research. As an independent self-funded organisation, our primary aim is to fund ambitious scientific research that harnesses the talents of innovative Australians.
Cereal grains such as wheat, oats and rice are crucial ingredients in the daily food intake of all Australians. Our multi-cultural population enjoys a vast variety of foods derived from cereals that originated far from Australia’s shores. The ongoing challenge for our industry is to continue to research and develop these foods taking into account the soils and changeable climate of the Australian continent, the health and lifestyle choices of our population and the possibilities of cereal grain food sources that are as yet unrealised.
It is our hope that the Partnership Program will aid the ambitious curiosity of the next generation of Australia’s grain food scientists and equip those trailblazers with the facilities and collaborative support to bring to fruition their visions. Research proposals for funding should be submitted in detail with a specific rationale that explains how the concept meets the ethos of Rosewood Research and our aims and principles. Further particulars on the available funding and the simple processes and documentation requirements for Partnership applications can be found on our site and by directly contacting our offices.
