  • direct benefit to fund contributors (cattle producers)
  • alignment with the Cattle Industry Fund investment priorities
  • alignment and collaboration with other state and national beef and dairy industry priorities and programs, ensuring no duplication of investment
  • support from industry stakeholders
  • value for money
  • innovation in program delivery
  • for ongoing programs, previous program performance and achievement of outcomes
  • the organisations capability and capacity to undertake the program including:
    • demonstrated project management experience
    • evidence of a project plan, including a communication plan and risk management plan
    • identification of measures of success and a plan to report on them.

As project funds are limited, meeting the assessment criteria does not guarantee funding.

Cattle Industry Fund investment priorities are:

  1. Maintaining market access and securing new markets
  2. Efficient and sustainable production
  3. Business management and skills development
  4. Advocacy

Projects addressing any of the Fund investment priorities will be considered. Investment priorities and funding guidelines are outlined in further detail in the Cattle Industry Fund Management Plan.
