A Call for Project Applications: 2024

Are you ready to make a difference in the Tasmanian beef industry? The Tasmanian Beef Industry Trust is thrilled to announce that we are now accepting applications for projects that will propel our industry forward. Whether you're an individual, a group, or an organization, we invite you to submit your innovative ideas that will shape the future of beef production in Tasmania.

In the past, the Trust has supported small-scale projects, encouraged co-contributions, and limited concurrent projects. But now, we're breaking free from constraints to embrace your big ideas. Here's what's new:

  • Increased Funding Limit: We've raised the funding limit for individual projects to $200,000, providing ample room for your ambitious proposals. However, we uphold our core values of merit, realistic outcomes, and value for money.
  • No Co-Contribution Required: Say goodbye to co-contributions! We're prepared to fund projects in full, although collaboration in funding is still welcomed.
  • Open Application Process: There's no limit to the number of applications we'll consider at any one time. We're eager to explore all projects of merit and rigorously select those with the greatest potential.

Applications are now open to the Trust from individuals, groups or organisations to fund projects that will benefit the Tasmanian beef industry. The call will remain open until 13th of May 2024. Download the guidelines and application form below.
