Country Office

ACIAR has a formal program of consultation with India to establish priorities in research collaboration. The most recent review of priorities, held between July 2006 and May 2007, led to the emergence of several focal areas:

Subprogram 1: Application of marker-assisted selection as a tool in wheat breeding ('Indo-Australian Program on marker assisted breeding for wheat')

Subprogram 2: Water management for enhanced livelihoods in rainfed areas of the Central Plateau, with emphasis on Andhra Pradesh

Subprogram 3: Policy options for trade and market reform to underpin agribusiness development
