Australian Crop Report: December 2017 No. 184

The report is a quarterly report with a consistent and regular assessment of crop prospects for major field crops, forecasts of area, yield and production and a summary of seasonal conditions on a state by state basis. 

 Key issues  
• Prospects for total winter crop production in Australia fell slightly during spring but there was significant regional variation. Crop prospects improved significantly in Western Australia but declined significantly in New South Wales and Queensland. 
• Harvest is underway in many regions but progress has been slowed by rainfall events. According to the latest rainfall outlook, issued by the Bureau of Meteorology on 30 November 2017 December rainfall is likely to be higher than average in south-east cropping regions. 
• Total winter crop production is forecast to decrease by 41 per cent in 2017-18 to 34.9 million tonnes, largely reflecting an expected fall in average yields from the exceptionally high yields of 2016-17. This is a downward revision of 4 per cent from the ABARES forecast published in the September 2017 edition of Australian crop report. This forecast production is 2 per cent below the 10-year average to 2015-16. 
• Production is forecast to fall in 2017-18 for the three major crops: wheat by 42 per cent to 20.3 million tonnes, barley by 40 per cent to 8.0 million tonnes and canola by 31 per cent to 2.9 million tonnes. 
• Area planted to summer crops is forecast to increase by 13 per cent to 1.5 million hectares in 2017-18, which reflects a more favourable opening to the summer crop season than in 2016-17 for grain sorghum. Area planted to grain sorghum is forecast to rise while area planted to cotton and rice is forecast to fall. Total summer crop production is forecast to increase by 23 per cent to around 4.8 million tonnes.

Australian Crop Report: February 2018 No. 185

The report is a quarterly report with a consistent and regular assessment of crop prospects for major field crops, forecasts of area, yield and production and a summary of seasonal conditions on a state by state basis. 

 Key issues  
• Harvesting of winter crops is largely complete across the country following a mixed season. Total winter crop production is estimated to have decreased by 36 per cent to 37.8 million tonnes in 2017-18. This is an upward revision of 8 per cent from the ABARES forecast published in the December 2017 Australian crop report. This largely reflects yields being better than anticipated in some regions following very favourable seasonal conditions during spring and early summer in these regions. 
• Production is estimated to have fallen in 2017-18 for three major crops: wheat by 38 per cent to 21.2 million tonnes, barley by 33 per cent to 8.9 million tonnes and canola by 15 per cent to 3.7 million tonnes. 
• Planting of summer crops is now largely complete and total area planted to summer crops is estimated to have increased by 3 per cent to 1.3 million hectares in 2017-18. This is a downward revision of 9 per cent from the forecast ABARES published in the December 2017 edition of Australian crop report. This revision reflects seasonal conditions in December and January that were unfavourable for the planting of grain sorghum. 
• Area planted to cotton is estimated to have fallen by 10 per cent in 2017-18 to 500,000 hectares. Area planted to grain sorghum is estimated to be 501,000 hectares, an increase of 26 per cent from the small area planted in 2016-17. Late season planting of grain sorghum is expected to be minimal because of unfavourable seasonal conditions over the past three months. These conditions are also expected to adversely affect yields and production is forecast to fall to 1.5 million tonnes.

Australian Estuaries Database - CAMRIS

CAMRIS incorporates the Australian estuarine database, which includes the National Estuaries Study (Bucher and Saenger 1989).  Attributes include location, name, climatic variables, run-off coefficients, land use, flood frequency, water quality, habitat types including seagrass/mangrove/saltmarsh, fisheries/conservation/amenity values, administration, literature and threats.
CAMRIS, standing for the Coastal and Marine Resources Information System, is a small-scale spatial analysis system developed in collaboration by several divisions of Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), as part of the CSIRO Coastal Zone Program.  CSIRO Division of Wildlife and Ecology is the custodian of the 'coastal' subset of the Australian Resources Information System (ARIS).  Coastal ARIS became the core dataset of the CAMRIS project.  The Coastal ARIS database was developed from a coastal inventory developed by Galloway et al.  This inventory contained relatively large scale data including landform, geology, vegetation, soil, land use, climate and population information for each of 3027 3x10km sections around the coastline of mainland Australia and Tasmania, but excluding offshore islands.

Australian fisheries economic indicators report 2017: Financial and economic performance of the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark Fishery

The  Australian fisheries economic indicators report  expands on and takes the place of the long running ABARES  Australian fisheries surveys report. The report presents results from ABARES' fishery surveys on financial returns to fishers and net economic returns from fisheries to the Australian community. The report includes a range of other economic indicators, including productivity analysis. 

 This report covers the Commonwealth Trawl Sector (CTS), and the Gillnet, Hook and Trap Sector (GHTS) of the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark Fishery (SESSF), with new survey results for the 2013-14 and 2014-15 financial years and non-survey based estimates of net economic return for the 2015-16 and 2016-17 financial years. 

 Key issues  

• Profit at full equity was positive and increased for the average boat in the CTS from 2013-14 to 2014-15 but was lower than the peak in 2008-09. In the GHTS, profit at full equity improved from negative to positive between 2013-14 and 2014-15, but the result in 2015-16 was lower than its 2008-09 level. 
• Net economic return (NER) in the CTS increased in 2014-15 following three years of decline. Preliminary non-survey based estimates indicate that NER further increased in the 2015-16 and 2016-17 financial years. 
• NER in the GHTS is estimated to have been negative in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 financial years. However, preliminary non-survey based estimates indicate that NER was positive in the 2015-16 and 2016-17 financial years with 2015-16 being the first positive NER in the fishery since 2008-09.

Australian grains: outlook for 2017-18 and industry productivity

Overview

This report provides a summary of the December 2017 edition of the Australian crop report and the grains sections of the December 2017 edition of Agricultural commodities. The report also includes material from an article on productivity in the Australian grains industry, released in the March 2017 edition of Agricultural commodities.

This report was commissioned by the Grains Research & Development Corporation (GRDC) and will be made available to growers.

Key Issues

World indicator prices of wheat and coarse grains are forecast to rise in 2017-18 as a result of expected lower supplies, while the canola indicator price is forecast to stabilise at 2016-17 levels due to mixed growing conditions in the major exporting countries.

In 2017-18 total winter crop production is forecast to decrease by 41 per cent to 34.9 million tonnes, largely reflecting an expected fall in average yields from the exceptionally high yields of 2016-17.

In 2017-18 total area planted to summer crops is forecast to increase by 13 per cent to 1.5 million hectares, which reflects a more favourable opening to the summer crop season for grain sorghum than in 2016-17. Total summer crop production in 2017-18 is forecast to increase by 23 per cent to around 4.8 million tonnes.

Productivity in the cropping industry grew on average by 1.5 per cent a year between 1977-78 and 2014-15. This was driven by strong output growth (2.6 per cent a year) relative to input growth (1.2 per cent a year).
