Bureau of Rural Sciences Home

On 1 July 2010, the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry merged two Bureaus within its portfolio, the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE) and the Bureau of Rural Sciences (BRS).

For more information on the new ABARE-BRS merger visit the ABARE-BRS website.
 Our new website is currently under construction.

Agriculture, fisheries and  forestry are technically and scientifically adventurous sectors in the economy. Science is a key contributor to the prosperity and sustainability of Australia's rural industries and communities.

BRS provides the scientific advice that delivers better decisions by Government and better outcomes for rural industries and communities.
