Australian Grain Technologies Pty Ltd: Revolutionizing the Agriculture Industry
Australian Grain Technologies Pty Ltd (AGT) is a leading agricultural biotechnology company that specializes in developing and commercializing new crop varieties. The company has been at the forefront of plant breeding research for over 30 years, and its innovative approach to crop improvement has revolutionized the agriculture industry.
At AGT, our work is a search for the exemplary. An intensive process of inter-crossing, field and laboratory experimentation, data collection and analysis that leads to the development of superior crop varieties. Our goal is to provide farmers with high-yielding crops that are resistant to pests and diseases while also being adaptable to different climatic conditions.
Our team of experienced scientists uses cutting-edge technologies such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics and molecular breeding techniques to develop new crop varieties. We have developed a range of wheat varieties that are now grown across Australia and other parts of the world.
One such variety is Mace wheat which was developed by AGT in collaboration with CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation). Mace wheat has become one of Australia's most popular wheat varieties due to its high yield potential, excellent disease resistance profile, good grain quality attributes including protein content suitable for bread making.
Another example is Calibre barley which was developed by AGT in partnership with InterGrain Pty Ltd. Calibre barley offers growers an improved yield potential compared with existing malting barley cultivars while maintaining excellent malt quality attributes required by brewers globally.
AGT's success can be attributed not only to our innovative approach but also our commitment towards sustainability. We believe in responsible stewardship towards natural resources such as water conservation through efficient irrigation practices or reducing greenhouse gas emissions through reduced tillage farming systems.
We have established partnerships with various organizations including universities, research institutions as well as seed companies worldwide which enables us access diverse germplasm collections from around the globe. This allows us to broaden the genetic base of our breeding programs and develop new crop varieties that are better adapted to changing environmental conditions.
AGT's commitment towards innovation, sustainability and collaboration has earned us a reputation as a leading agricultural biotechnology company. Our work has been recognized through numerous awards including the prestigious Australian Export Award for Innovation in 2019.
In conclusion, AGT is an innovative company that is revolutionizing the agriculture industry through its cutting-edge research and development of new crop varieties. Our commitment towards sustainability and collaboration with various organizations worldwide ensures that we continue to provide farmers with high-yielding crops that are resistant to pests and diseases while also being adaptable to different climatic conditions. We look forward to continuing our work towards creating a more sustainable future for agriculture.
