This plan identifies four key objectives for R&D investments to be made on behalf of the Tea Tree Oil industry and the Australian Government. It has been prepared by RIRDC’s Tea Tree Oil Research and Development Advisory Committee with input from both growers and product manufacturers and reflects the industry in 2005.
The Tea Tree Oil Program is part of RIRDC’s New Industries Portfolio which brings opportunity, diversity and resilience to rural Australia. RIRDC supports the continued development of an environmentally sustainable and profitable Australian tea tree oil industry that has established international leadership in marketing, value-adding, product reliability and production.
