The Department of Primary Industries (DPI) is responsible for agriculture, fisheries, earth resources, energy and forestry in Victoria.
We design and deliver government policies and programs that enable Victoria 's primary and energy industries to sustainably maximise the wealth and wellbeing they generate, by providing essential goods and services, employment, investment and recreational opportunities.
DPI is one of 11 Victorian Government departments, reporting to the Minister for Energy and Resources and Minister for Agriculture. We employ more than 2,500 staff who work from 70 locations across the State.
