Australia's beef supply chains : Infrastructure issues and implications

The real value of world agrifood demand is projected to increase by 77 per cent between 2007 and 2050, with most of this increase occurring in Asia. Beef is one commodity where there could be a significant increase in demand, with rising incomes in Asia leading to an increase in demand for higher protein foods, including meat and dairy products. 

 This study describes Australia's beef supply chains, the industry's reliance on economic infrastructure, and how this infrastructure influences the competitiveness of the Australian beef industry. 

 While the main constraints appear to be in the road transport sector, the report also identifies telecommunications infrastructure as a potential constraint, with some stakeholders raising concerns about patchy mobile phone coverage and unreliable satellite internet access. 

 The causes of inefficiencies in road transport are considered, and possible options for addressing them, such as user-pays models, are examined. Further research into the practical effects of introducing such systems is required to better understand the benefits and costs across users. 

 Collecting data on road use, condition and maintenance costs is a useful first step in addressing inefficiency into road funding allocation systems. Even without road pricing reform, such data can help increase efficiency by guiding funding to better reflect where road use and damage occur.

Australian beef: Financial performance of beef cattle producing farms, 2012-13 to 2014-15

This report presents the detailed financial performance of beef cattle producing farms in 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 and discusses incomes, investment, farm debt, costs of beef production in a historical context. It draws heavily on data from the ABARES annual Australian Agricultural and Grazing Industries Survey (AAGIS). The report was commissioned by Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA). 

 Key Issues  
• Farm cash incomes of beef cattle producing farms increased strongly in 2014-15 as a result of increased cattle prices and the highest beef cattle turn-off in 36 years. 
• In northern Australia, farm cash income for beef cattle producing farms is estimated to have increased from an average of $74 700 a farm in 2013-14 to an average of $148 000 a farm in 2014-15. This is around 50 per cent above the average for the previous 10 years, in real terms. 
• In southern Australia, farm cash income of specialist beef cattle producing farms, those farms mainly reliant on beef cattle production, is estimated to have increased from an average of $38 100 a farm in 2013-14 to $64 000 a farm in 2014-15. This is around 35 per cent above the average for the 10 years ending 2013-14. 
• Part of the increase in farm cash incomes has been achieved through reduced cattle herds as cattle turn-off increased in response to dry seasonal conditions and higher cattle prices. As a result, farm business profits remained below the average for the 10 years ending 2013-14.

Parking Transactions

This dataset describes the number, type and date of car parking transactions located in Ballarat.
The information was collected as the transactions occurred.
The intended use of the information is to inform the public of the number of parking transactions occurring in Ballarat's car parking zones.
The dataset is typically updated monthly on manual schedule.
Council implemented free parking from 11am-3pm from 19/3/20 and then free parking all day from 30/3/20 to 8/6/20 in response to novel coronavirus COVID-19. Parking transactions from this period will reflect those changes.

NSW - CRA/RFA - Forests - Upper North East - National Wilderness Inventory (NWI) Database

The Australian National Wilderness Inventory (NWI) is an environmental database and a set of modelling procedures which are designed to assist in the planning and management of remote and natural lands in Australia.

The NWI survey work for the Upper North East (UNE) Comprehensive Regional Assessment (CRA) region was derived by measuring variation in Wilderness Quality across the landscape using the four Wilderness Quality 'indicators' that represent the two essential attributes of wilderness: remoteness and naturalness. The indicators include: Remoteness from Settlement, Remoteness from Access, Apparent Naturalness and Biophysical Naturalness, and were derived from the definition of Wilderness Quality as the extent to which a location is remote from and undisturbed by the influence of modern development.

The NWI database consists of all measurements used to derive wilderness indicator values, the wilderness indicator values themselves, and a final Wilderness Quality index.

NSW - CRA/RFA - Forests - Southern - National Estate - Cultural Values

This dataset is a GIS layer that represents all sites of historic, social, and aesthetic significance sites within the Southern CRA region that were selected for targeted investigation . Sites were then field investigated by heritage consultants, based on their potential historic, social or aesthetic significance.  These sites were then entered into the NSW State Heritage Inventory database, and annotated onto topographic maps for digitising. Based on detailed reports from the heritage consultant field investigations, the CHWG assessed sites using a significance and threat matrix. Sites considered to be over the signficance and vulnerability threshold (and where found to be on public land) were entered into the non Indigenous Cultural Heritage Cplan layer.

NSW - CRA/RFA - Forests - Lower North East - National Wilderness Inventory (NWI) Delineated Boundary

The delineated wilderness coverage for the NSW Lower North East (LNE) region was developed from the National Wilderness Inventory (NWI) database - see separate metadata in "NSW - CRA/RFA - Forests - Lower North East - National Wilderness Inventory (NWI) Database". The dataset was derived using a set of decision rules developed by the Eden Wilderness Panel and refined by the Environment and Heritage Technical Committee.

The delineated wilderness dataset was used in negotiations for the North East NSW Regional Forest Agreement to fulfil nationally-agreed criteria (JANIS, 1997). The dataset was also used by the NSW Government in a subsequent process for assessment under the NSW Wilderness Act 1987 (EA, 1999).

NSW - CRA/RFA - Forests - Lower North East - Candidate Old Growth Forest Ecosystems

The Candidate Old Growth forest ecosystems layer was derived by integrating: structural maturity classes mapped from Aerial Photographic Interpretation (API) data; interpretability classes derived from vegetation mapping units; and disturbance history information derived from both API and Management History logging information.

Grid values are identical to the forest ecosystem values contained in the Lower North East (LNE) region forest ecosystems layer. Values are represented only for old growth forest ecosystems which are classified as forest and rainforest (non forest ecosystems are excluded).
