APL/Pork CRC Roadshows
APL/Pork CRC Roadshows play a key role in APL and the CRC's technology transfer and adoption activities. The Roadshows disseminate research outcomes from APL and Pork CRC projects, and where possible an international guest speaker delivers messages on overseas industries. Roadshows are held twice a year.
