Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention.

The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation.

A thorough review of the extant literature identified several factors that have a direct association with a firm's export propensity. This research proposed that a firm's human resources, relationship capabilities and information capabilities impact on their export propensity.
The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention.

The research design adopted for this study was comprised of two stages. The first stage was a qualitative, exploratory stage consisting of four in-depth interviews with seafood industry experts. The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Since colonisation, Australia has been a country that relies heavily upon the export of its agricultural produce to contribute to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. However, in recent times, the export focus and capability of the agricultural industry has decreased. Whilst the overall importance of exporting is recognised in the academic literature, the determinants of export propensity in countries outside the United States and the European Union have received little attention. This gap in the literature is despite the reality that improving the export propensity of Australian agricultural firms has become an area of increasing importance to government bodies and private industry alike. More specifically, this need for improvement and growth is especially the case for the Australian seafood industry.

The second stage consisted of case study interviews where data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with senior management from two prawn farms and two prawn fishers.

The findings indicate that a firm's internal resources and capabilities do impact on export propensity, particularly the commitment and experience of managerial staff, information capabilities and relationship capability to a lesser degree, play an important role in creating export propensity.

Body colouration, an important survival, mate selection and communication mechanism for animals in the wild, has also significant commercial implications. In aquaculture, a darker body colour in prawns can increase farm profitability by AU$ 2-4 dollar per kilo of prawns. Therefore, there is a strong commercial interest in increasing colour intensity of prawns grown in captivity. In this study, the focus was on F. merguiensis, and the determination of factors that could be involved in colour formation in this species.

Molecular techniques were employed to clone and isolate crustacyanin subunits, genes known to be responsible for colouration in other crustacean species, from the muscle/cuticle tissue of F. merguiensis prawns and to develop gene specific primers to quantify the levels of crustacyanin gene expression in the cuticle of prawns displaying three different colour phenotypes (albino, light and dark).

The sequences encoding for the crustacyanin subunits A and C were isolated from the cuticle tissue in F. merguiensis and their expression levels characterised in prawns displaying different colouration patterns.

One of the original aims of the Seafood CRC was to create opportunities for industry (especially) and research participants to expand their knowledge and to encourage further education opportunities. To enable individuals to take innovative concepts right through to a business plan via an educational process that expanded their horizons with regards to what could be achieved would be ground breaking.

Very few ideas are turned into commercial successes. A great many of them have potential, and significant investment is usually directed to overcoming any technical issues that may be encountered. The resulting innovations still need to be commercialised. It is this commercialisation process that can make the difference between an innovation succeeding or failing. There are a number of tools and techniques that can be learned that will increase the chance that an innovation can become a commercial reality therefore a program focusing on the commercialisation process was required.

The program was delivered in two main formats, an eight month program over eight weekends (producing a business plan) and a four day program focussing more broadly on developing management and decision making skills. The eight month version attracted a smaller more narrowly focussed group of attendees but resulted in slightly higher outcomes in terms of overall satisfaction, impact and stronger ongoing networks, while the shorter version had broader appeal, attracted more attendees and still resulted in high levels of satisfaction and impact (but not as strong ongoing networks).

The resulting innovations still need to be commercialised. It is this commercialisation process that can make the difference between an innovation succeeding or failing. There are a number of tools and techniques that can be learned that will increase the chance that an innovation can become a commercial reality therefore a program focusing on the commercialisation process was required.

The program was delivered in two main formats, an eight month program over eight weekends (producing a business plan) and a four day program focussing more broadly on developing management and decision making skills. The eight month version attracted a smaller more narrowly focussed group of attendees but resulted in slightly higher outcomes in terms of overall satisfaction, impact and stronger ongoing networks, while the shorter version had broader appeal, attracted more attendees and still resulted in high levels of satisfaction and impact (but not as strong ongoing networks).
