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.
