Abstract

Agriculture is an important part of the Australian economy and an area of significant comparative advantage. Agriculture can post major successes in developing and adopting innovations and new technologies particularly in dry land cropping, pasture-based production systems and biosecurity arrangements that protect against pest and disease incursions. The essence of our comparative advantage is our reputation as a producer of clean, green, safe, affordable, sustainable and ethical food and other agricultural products. Optimising production whilst maintaining our unique capacity and reputation both nationally and internationally is the critical challenge that will be explored by this study
