6. Implementing the Future Framework<br />
6.1 Funding Arrangements<br />
Funding arrangements for Australian horticultural RD&E are complex and are shown in Figure 1,<br />
below.<br />
<strong>Horticultural</strong> peak industry bodies (PIBs) and HAL determine RD&E investment priorities for<br />
individual industries. These are available in individual industry strategic investment plans.<br />
PISC agency RD&E investment priorities are driven by the strategic directions of individual State and<br />
Commonwealth governments, which are largely based on creating wealth for their economies but also<br />
take into account factors such as RD&E capability and capacity, the existence of market failure,<br />
beneficiaries of the research, geographic location of the industry and industry priorities.<br />

Funding flows for Investment in Australia’s <strong>Horticultural</strong> Industries<br />
Figure 1: Funding flows for RD&E investment in the horticultural industries<br />
Figure 1 describes four mechanisms by which RD&E programs for horticultural industries may<br />
receive funding. These are:<br />
Direct investment by the PISC agencies<br />
Co-investment of the PISC agencies with HAL where HAL is investing industry levy funds<br />
matched by Commonwealth funds<br />
<strong>Industry</strong>-based Voluntary Contributions (VCs) available for co-investment with HAL and<br />
State agencies/CSIRO.<br />
Other Commonwealth agencies (e.g. ACIAR, RIRDC, DAFF) providing co investment with<br />
the State agencies/CSIRO<br />
6.1.1 Direct investment by <strong>Research</strong> Providers<br />
Under this mechanism, State and Commonwealth research providers strategically determine that there<br />
is a strong role of government to invest in particular aspects of particular industries. The agency<br />
makes within-agency resources available to achieve the priorities identified.<br />
