• Functional food/feed/nutraceutical ingredients with enhanced nutritional and phytochemical profiles from specialty crops (Australian native plant foods) and industry co/by-products
• Value chain value-addition through processing and preservation
• Sensory properties, linked to consumer marketing and branding
• Innovative packaging solutions and safe use of novel plant foods
