The Sowing the Seeds of Farming Innovation Fund (SSFIF) is a $30 million Queensland Government initiative designed to accelerate agricultural innovation, adoption and productivity across Queensland’s primary industries.

  

Queensland’s agricultural sector is at a pivotal moment. Innovation can unlock step-change productivity, strengthen climate resilience and drive sustainable regional growth. SSFIF supports this transformation by investing directly in early to growth-stage companies that:
 

  • Deliver measurable public benefit outcomes, including productivity uplift and environmental resilience;
  • Strengthen Queensland’s ag-innovation ecosystem and commercialisation pathways;
  • Address adoption and capability barriers through investment readiness support and targeted engagement.
