Need

AgriFutures growᴬᴳ⋅ is the platform for Australian and global agrifood innovation. Explore research, technology, and commercialisation opportunities in one place. Connect with a diverse ecosystem including researchers, investors, and startups and discover funding avenues, list projects, and engage with over 400 organisations.

Agricultural research is vital for ensuring food security, sustainable farming practices, and rural development. AgriFutures growAG. involves collaboration between the Department of Agriculture Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) and Australia’s 15 Research & Development Corporations (RDCs), collating details on the vast rural RDC investment landscape. Collation of project details on growᴬᴳ is currently a manual, keyword-based tagging system that suffers from limitations:
- Limited Semantic Understanding: Keywords often fail to capture the nuanced relationships between projects, leading to fragmented information retrieval.
- Scalability Issues: Manual tagging is time-consuming and prone to inconsistencies, hindering efficient data management as the database grows.
- Lack of Interoperability: The current system lacks the ability to seamlessly integrate with other agricultural datasets and knowledge bases.
This project proposes to develop an AI-driven solution for semantically linking agricultural research projects, enabling more accurate and comprehensive project navigation and knowledge discovery. By leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) and knowledge graph technologies, we aim to transform the current keyword-based system into a dynamic and interconnected knowledge repository.

Objectives

1. Provide seamless ingestion of RDC data onto the platform including automation, providing projectsummaries and tagging.
2. Facilitate advanced semantic search and exploration through the integration of AI and data visualisation techniques.
3. Provide a value add for the ecosystem, partners, and visitors by being able to query the underlying growAG data set and better understand potential opportunities and trends.
