AMPS Research is a proud component of our business. It was developed to provide local, independent research for growers and has a unique funding model. A percentage of our commercial profit from our merchandise stores goes into AMPS Research. With this unique funding model, we have complete autonomy over the trials and research we run, allowing us to be grower-focused and pursue trials that are practical and action-focused.
Our aim is to help farmers increase profitability, productivity, and sustainability across the region. With a growing team, last year, our Research team planted 15,000 winter crop trial plots and 4,000 summer crop trial plots.
We want to keep growing this and helping ensure the sustainability and longevity of the industry we love.
To be an AMPS Research member, we ask you to support our commercial business by shopping with one of our six branches across the North-West at Armatree, Caroona, Gunnedah, Moree, Tamworth and Walgett.
To find out more, get in touch today. We’d love to hear from you.
