ExtractSmall businesses have long been recognized for their contributions to innovation, job creation and the overall health of most economies (Audretsch, 2004; North et al., 2001; Tilley and Tonge, 2003). Government policies in most countries, therefore, often include support measures and infrastructure to help nurture small businesses, particularly in relation to their innovation-related needs (North et al., 2001). Most recently, there has been growing interest in fostering the emergence of new and innovative small businesses, especially in the high-technology and knowledge-intensive sectors (Bridge et al., 2009). The ’high technology’ and ’knowledge-intensive sectors’ are those sectors of the economy that have …
The Impact Of Fresh Produce Specifications On The Australian Food And Nutrition System: A Case Study Of The North Queensland Banana Industry, Amy White, Danielle Gallegos, Tor Hundloe
The Impact Of Fresh Produce Specifications On The Australian Food And Nutrition System: A Case Study Of The North Queensland Banana Industry, Amy White, Danielle Gallegos, Tor Hundloe
Tor Hundloe
Objective: To use the north Queensland banana industry as a case study to examine the extent to which cosmetic standards set by retailers influence the amount of edible waste generated on-farm and the effect of this on the sustainability of the Australian food and nutrition system.Design: Waste audits were performed on-farm at a banana packing shed to quantify the amount of fruit discarded due to cosmetic imperfections. These data, together with production records provided by the Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries and interviews with growers, were used to inform a nutritional analysis, a life cycle assessment and an economic …
Fishing For Sustainability: Will Your Grandchildren Have The Option To Eat Seafood?, Tor Hundloe, Julian Morison, Kate Brooks, Andrew Sullivan
Fishing For Sustainability: Will Your Grandchildren Have The Option To Eat Seafood?, Tor Hundloe, Julian Morison, Kate Brooks, Andrew Sullivan

Many of the world’s fisheries are threatened by over-exploitation or fish kills from run-off of industrial, agricultural and urban pollutants. The latter tends to be localised; however, over 50 years ago the explorer Thor Heyendall discovered the unexpected in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean in his ’Kon Tild’ expedition -- large globules of congealed pollutants. While the pollution of our rivers, seas and oceans has only taken on dramatic dimensions since the rapid industrialisation and human population growth of the twentieth century, over-fishing has known no boundaries for much longer. However, only in recent times have the consequences …

The Management Of Recreational Fisheries, Daryl Mcphee
The Management Of Recreational Fisheries, Daryl Mcphee
Daryl McPhee
Coastal fisheries are complex ecological and social systems. In many countries, including Australia, they have evolved over time with a shift in focus from the commercial to the recreational sector. Recreational fishing can be defined as any fishing for which the primary motivation is leisure rather than profit, and for which harvested animals do not constitute an individual’s primary resource for nutritional needs. It is an ubiquitous activity in marine and freshwater regions of Australia, with most recreational fishing activity occurring in estuarine, coastal and shallow reef areas. The dominant form of recreational fishing is line fishing (angling), although it …
