Agriculture – your investment opportunity

Agriculture is a key strength of the Queensland economy. By maximising our innovative processes and technologies, Queensland is well-positioned to meet the rising global food demand and challenges brought about by climate change.

Our new technology boom is radically changing farming and boosting productivity. The next generation of precision agriculture technology is being developed here – including automation and data analytics, genomics, and modelling and remote sensing. Queensland is also a significant global beef processor, servicing global markets with high-quality beef products.

Agriculture Technology

Queensland-based investment opportunities are transforming food production as we know it. Its technological advances in robotics, packaging, digital and wireless systems, weather and animal monitoring, and geospatial development will be critical to driving efficiency and productivity to meet the world’s food needs.

Future foods and plant-based proteins

Global food security relies on the development and delivery of new technologies to increase food production. Queensland has an abundance of natural resources and feedstocks, which – combined with world-class scientists and research institutions – provide a platform for investors to harness the emerging opportunities in future foods.

Aquaculture

Queensland’s diverse fisheries, excellent growing conditions and research programs are poised to help meet global demand for quality seafood products. Terrestrial Aquaculture Development Areas encourage sustainable growth opportunities for investors in products such as prawns and barramundi.
