Welcome to PICCC

The Primary Industries Climate Challenges Centre (PICCC) is a collaborative venture between the University of Melbourne and the Department of Primary Industries Victoria.

PICCC combines the resources and activities of its partners to lead research, development and extension related to climate change and the primary industries.

Integrating both mitigation and adaptation, PICCC facilitates production, environmental, social and policy research at both the enterprise and landscape level.

PICCC’s aim is to advance the long term sustainability of Australia’s food and fibre production through knowledge generation and management, partnerships and capacity building.
