Website Update
As part of the transition between the CRC for an Internationally Competitive Australian Pork Industry, which ceased operation on June 30, 2011, and the CRC for High Integrity Australian Pork (HIAP), which commenced on July 1, 2011, the Pork CRC is refreshing and refining its website.
The research programs for the Pork CRC have been updated and expanded to reflect those for the 2011/19 lifespan of the CRC for HIAP.

All the project reports and summaries from the CRC for an Internationally Competitive Australian Pork Industry are still available for downloading on  www.apri.com.au.
