Primary Industries

There is significant potential for increasing the productivity and export potential of the primary sector. However, achieving this potential will require significant change in how the sector operates – including a fit-for-purpose regulatory regime and a system that encourages innovation while also ensuring that stringent standards are maintained.

MartinJenkins has worked closely with the primary sector providing strategic advice, performance monitoring, and evaluation services, as well as leading policy development and the design of regulations. Our work in related policy areas – such as resource management, and labour, skills and sector productivity – mean we are well-placed to offer whole-of-system strategic advice and support.
