Beef : Meating The Market, Greg Sawyer, Richard Morris, Geoff Tudor
Beef : Meating The Market, Greg Sawyer, Richard Morris, Geoff Tudor
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Nearly half of Western Australia's beef production is consumed on the domestic market, but the scene is changing rapidly.
In this article Greg Sawyer, Richard Morris and Geoff Tudor review information on production systems performance, and carcase and quality measurements that may well serve wider market opportunities in the future.
Sharing Information Benefits The Meat Industry, Michael Paton
Sharing Information Benefits The Meat Industry, Michael Paton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Cronic health problems of livestock, seldom detected on farms, reduce the efficiency of abattoirs and returns to producers. But a major project providing information to producers from abattoirs is indicating how everyone could benefit from feedback.
New Lamb Marketing Opportunities, Tim Marshall
New Lamb Marketing Opportunities, Tim Marshall
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The changes to the future operations of the Western Australian Meat Marketing Corporation will provide increased opportunities for prime lamb producers.
In summary, these changes are the removal of acquisition from the domestic market while retaining it for lambs destined for export, and the establishment of the Corporation as a single desk seller on the export market.
This should result in increased domestic consumption of lamb, less reliance on lower priced export markets, a change in the type of lamb produced, and a reduction of imports of lamb from the Eastern States.
Meat Marketing : The L.I.P.C. And Japan's Meat Import Controls, G C. George
Meat Marketing : The L.I.P.C. And Japan's Meat Import Controls, G C. George
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
hardly a week passes without some reference to Japan's Livestock Industry Promotion Corperation (L.I.P.C.), and its effect on Australian meat exporters.
This article describes some of the functions of the L.I.P.C., and attempts to provide some insights into the Japanese meat market. The author, Gil George, recently returned from Japan after completing a Master's degree in Economics.
Prime Lamb Production In Western Australia : A Review Of The Development Of The Prime Lamb Industry In Western Australia, R J. Suiter
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
PRIME LAMB production in Western Australia has evolved into an industry based almost entirely on the local market.
This has not always been the case. In the 1930-40 era a substantial proportion of the State's prime lamb production was exported to the United Kingdom.
During this era the industry was equally dependent on exports and local market.
This Year's Export Lamb Carcass Competition, N Davenport
This Year's Export Lamb Carcass Competition, N Davenport
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE Export Lamb Competition will be conducted through the Royal Agricultural Society again this year.
Last year, due partly to the season, entries were well below those of previous years and if this competition is to continue, greater support from breeders is necessary.
I am sure you will agree that such a competition has undoubted value both for producers in recognising the type of lamb required, and also as an advertising medium for the sale of high quality Western Australian lamb on the English markets.
