Brief description
OverviewAustralia's Agricultural Industries 2017 map provides a snapshot of agriculture's status and trend. It shows where Australia's broad agricultural land uses are located and statistics on their area and land tenure. The map reports on the top 5 livestock, crop and horticulture commodities based on gross value of production. Trends in agricultural production, employment and exports are also given including for Australia's top 5 export commodities and destinations.
The map presents information in a simple and easy to understand manner and provides a useful resource for planning and regional development.
This map replaces the 2016 map with updated agricultural and employment data.
Key Issues
• The map presents published data of current status and historical trends from ABARES and the Australian Bureau of Statistics on a single page. A change in scope of the agricultural census 2015-16 data has impacted on commodity data, particularly with some horticultural commodities.
• This map complements ABARES Australia's Forestry Industry 2017 map.
