3. Market testing will be carrie out by exporting processed stock (tonnage to be determined) to China for comparison against locally produced products.
4. In line with Victoria's intention to be recognised as a first class supplier of pure and fresh seafood products, it is desirable that an alternative to alum (used in the processing stages) be investigated. Further value adding techniques, such as packaging and "total meal" additives will be investigated to ensure that the Victorian product is clearly distinguished on the market. This is seen as a distinct advantage in establishing firm market niches.
