Connecting innovation, research, and expertise at Waite
Welcome to the Waite Campus, home to the largest concentration of agricultural research and teaching expertise in the Southern Hemisphere. Established in 1924 at Urrbrae, Adelaide, the Waite brings together 15 complementary organisations and centres, delivering world-class research and development in plant, agricultural, food, wine, and natural resources science.
In a world facing growing food insecurity, climate pressures, and economic challenges, Peter Waite’s vision to harness science to enhance agricultural productivity remains profoundly relevant. The Waite is a globally recognised hub for agricultural research and education, with leading expertise in wine, grains, soil, and plant breeding.

It is designed for our diverse stakeholder groups, including industry, government, academics, and students.
