Hybrid cereals grow in a wide range of environments, require less water and produce more grain from less land. This project will generate an enhanced capacity to rapidly develop new hybrid cereal varieties. The Australian community will benefit by having enhanced food security using less water and less land. The Australian community will also benefit because land and water will be released to the environment, or to support other industries and their communities, or to grow other crops. The wide environmental adaptation of these hybrid cereals will allow the Australian community to respond flexibly to adverse climatic changes.

杂交谷物可以在广泛的环境中生长，需要更少的水，并且可以用更少的土地生产更多的谷物。该项目将增强快速开发新的杂交谷物品种的能力。使用更少的水和土地来加强粮食安全将使澳大利亚社区受益。澳大利亚社区也将从中受益，因为土地和水将被释放到环境中，或支持其他行业及其社区，或种植其他作物。这些杂交谷物的广泛环境适应能力将使澳大利亚社会能够灵活应对不利的气候变化。
