Livestock sciences
SARDI's livestock sciences division delivers food safety innovations to underpin public health and inform government policy advice.
Our work supports sustainable and economical animal industries. We develop economic agri-food industries and achieve competitively priced, high-quality produce.
This research supports the national plan for extension in Australia’s pork, poultry, red meat, and animal welfare sectors.
Find out about our SA Discovery Farms project to improve climate resilience for SA cropping, livestock, and mixed farms.
