Australian Beef Production and Exports by Nina Swann Pdf
Extract: Australia is a major producer and exporter of beef and veal. In 1982, Australia exported 628 kilotons of beef and veal valued at US $1,177 million. Half of Australia's beef and veal was imported by the United States and Japan. The Australian cattle industry depends on grazing; consequently, number of cattle, slaughter, and production have fluctuated considerably from droughts, diseases, cattle cycles, and changing export markets. The United States and Australia significantly affect one another's beef industries. The United States influences the Australian beef and veal industry indirectly through beef cycle price changes, and directly through the Countercyclical Meat Import Law. Australia will continue to compete strongly with the United States in beef export markets.

Beef Cattle Production and Trade covers all aspects of the beef industry from paddock to plate. It is an international text with an emphasis on Australian beef production, written by experts in the field. The book begins with an overview of the historical evolution of world beef consumption and introductory chapters on carcass and meat quality, market preparation and world beef production. North America, Brazil, China, South-East Asia and Japan are discussed in separate chapters, followed by Australian beef production, including feed lotting and live export. The remaining chapters summarise R&D, emphasising the Australian experience, and look at different production systems and aspects of animal husbandry such as health, reproduction, grazing, feeding and finishing, genetics and breeding, production efficiency, environmental management and business management. The final chapter examines various case studies in northern and southern Australia, covering feed demand and supply, supplements, pasture management, heifer and weaner management, and management of internal and external parasites.
The Australian Beef Report by Ian McLean,Phil Holmes,Michael Wellington,Dionne Walsh,Paton,Robert Freebairn Pdf
The Australian Beef Report is an independent publication detailing and analysing the financial and production performance of grass-fed beef industry in Australia. It has been written for profit focussed beef producers, industry service professionals and other industry stakeholders who would like to better understand, and improve, beef business performance in Australia.It reports on the performance of specialist, family owned, beef businesses in Australia. The industry is broken up into North (QLD, NT and the northern half of WA) and South (NSW, VIC, TAS, SA and southern half of WA) for the analysis. Within these two halves of Australia there is segmentation and analysis of the north and south by herd size, market and region. For each cohort, the performance is analysed at the business level (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Whole Business Key Performance Indicator's) and at enterprise level (Herd Income Statement and Herd Key Performance Indicator's) for both the average of the cohort and the Top 25% of businesses.This analysis allows the performance of the industry by region, herd size and market to be thoroughly analysed. The factors which separate the top performers are detailed, with pathways and options to improve the financial performance of beef businesses are clearly identified.Insights and wisdom from a panel of producers from across the beef industry are also included in the report. This 'Pastoral Panel' share their hard-won experience and unique perspectives, and have opened a window into their character in doing so. Their responses are frank, insightful, sometimes contrary, but unfailingly thought provoking. The Australian Beef industry is the largest land manager in Australia, managing nearly 50% of the land mass and its long-term performance is determined by how well it manages that natural resource base. A chapter has therefore been included on the 'The Effective Utilisation and Preservation of the Natural Resource Base', prepared by industry experts with practical understanding of both the established science and the latest research.Land values, terms of trade, industry productivity, herd rebuilding post drought, climate risk management and beef prices are also discussed in this valuable resource for the beef industry.
