Indonesia-Australia Partnership on Food Security in the Red Meat and Cattle Sector

The Indonesia–Australia Partnership on Food Security in the Red Meat and Cattle Sector (the Partnership) is a bilateral initiative established in 2013.

It aims to develop a competitive, efficient and sustainable Australia–Indonesia red meat and cattle industry as part of a globally competitive supply chain.

The Partnership is a unique forum that brings together Indonesian and Australian decision makers from government and industry. Together they foster enduring relations and to maximise the opportunities for development and collaboration amongst the Indonesian and Australian red meat and cattle sectors.
