Newport Scientific has won the Australian Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology (AIAST) Award for Technology and Innovation at the 2005 Rabobank Agribusiness Awards for Excellence. Run in conjunction with Monash University, the awards honour both corporate and individual achievement in Australian agribusiness.

The AIAST Technology and Innovation Award was presented to Newport Scientific in recognition of their innovative equipment and their novel solutions to problems faced by the world’s food, grain, and cereal industries.

Managing Director, Rodney Booth, says that the award is a tribute to all Newport’s staff, because it is the result of a real team effort.

‘Newport Scientific has developed a strong relationship with the agricultural scientific community so it’s very appropriate that this award is sponsored by the AIAST,’ Rodney says. ‘It is also an example of our sustained support of the agricultural industry through customer focus.

‘Export markets are won by being responsive - we have recognised a customer need and have delivered to that need in an appropriate timeframe,’ he says. ‘Our export success is built on our relationships with our customers.’
