Need

Regulatory efficiency and compliance across agricultural supply chains is hindered by inefficient, incompatible or unavailable data and systems that prevent creation of robust, interoperable traceability solutions. The Australian AgriFood Data Exchange (AAFDX) will solve this challenge by creating a secure, cloud-based platform enabling government, industry and other participants to share, re-use and merge data from disparate systems in a secure, controlled manner. The AAFDX will be a modern, efficient, internationally recognised data infrastructure enabling regulators and industry to better manage compliance, stimulate innovation and supply chain performance, assure consumers, coordinate biosecurity and export market access, through enhanced traceability. The funding will build the minimal viable product, with expansion to specific traceability and compliance applications. The AAFDX will endure beyond the funding period with partner co-investment and a user pays revenue stream

Objectives

1. Deliver a minimum viable product (MVP) of the Australian Agrifood Data Exchange services
2. Develop a platform that facilitates applications/solutions that increase traceability, productivity, compliance, profitability
3. Develop governance arrangements to ensure that data security, and in turn users trust in ag-tech is not compromised
4. Build digital maturity of the fisheries and aquaculture sectors to engage in the potential, permissioned shared data offers
