Achievement of the project aims will generate valuable intellectual property and meet National Research Priorities by: enhancing our knowledge base for the production of renewable bio-fuels from crop residues, for an environmentally sustainable Australia; developing preventative healthcare through adoption of healthier diets, rich in non-starchy cell wall polysaccharides that help reduce the incidence and severity of cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes and some cancers; and by developing breakthrough science in emerging agricultural technologies. The alliance will foster an intellectual environment to provide world-class basic research outcomes and training of highly skilled graduates, thereby contributing to the 'knowledge nation'.

实现该项目的目标将产生有价值的知识产权，并通过以下方式满足国家研究重点：增强我们从作物残留物中生产可再生生物燃料的知识基础，以实现澳大利亚的环境可持续发展；通过采用富含非淀粉细胞壁多糖的健康饮食，帮助减少心血管疾病、肥胖、糖尿病和某些癌症的发病率和严重程度，发展预防性保健；并通过发展新兴农业技术的突破性科学。该联盟将营造一个智力环境，以提供世界一流的基础研究成果和培养高技能毕业生，从而为“知识国家”做出贡献。
