A suite of new projects on tropical fruits. Assist in the development of business plans for some potential innovative animal industries. In 1997-98 the Corporation funded specific projects for seven of these industries. Other individual projects covered a broad spectrum for species and their products. Funding continues on the commercialisation of native and feral animal products where enhancement of the environment and biodiversity is not threatened.
Specific projects are in progress for the kangaroo, emu, crocodile and camel industries.

Research for the ostrich and emu industries will concentrate on the production system because outcomes here will be of significance to those producers who will best exploit the market challenges currently faced by these industries.
