Medium Term Strategy

ACIAR’s program in China will focus on sustainability aspects of agricultural production through policy and technical projects on better management of land and water resources in western China.

In addressing sustainable production, the need to raise farmers’ incomes through increased productivity and profitability is also taken into account in project design.

In recognition of the evolution of Australia’s development assistance relationship with China, all new activities will take the form of partnerships that include significant co-investment by our Chinese partners.

ACIAR will make small investments through a new China Linkages Scheme to foster collaborative linkages between projects that have been funded from other Australian and Chinese sources and facilitate broader interactions between Chinese partner agencies and Australian agencies in subjects of high priority to both countries.

Funding for exchange visits for workshops or other small activities for exposure to Australian agricultural policies, natural resource management practices, institutions and research management may also be provided for activities involving China.
