CRCNA Tiwi Island - Maximising northern tropical forestry

Maximising northern tropical forestry-linking communities and cutting-edge technology. This research supports the expansion of tropical hardwood plantations in Northern Australia. By applying cutting-edge genomics, molecular marker and plant breeding technologies across selected Eucalyptus species to improve productivity, and combining with community-based enterprise development approaches, a model will be developed for the establishment and growth of tropical forestry plantations across northern Australia.
