the proportion, by ingoing weight, of the food's Australian ingredients:

      * a Made in Australia statement, together with a statement that aligns with the bar chart and clearly states the minimum proportion, by ingoing weight, of the food's Australian ingredients.

Where a particular ingredient is sourced exclusively from a particular country, text naming the origin of that ingredient can be added to the standard mark.

If food grown, produced or made in Australia is exported and re-imported without substantial transformation, but with some processing overseas (for example, cleaning, shelling, packaging or re‑packaging), then the processing that occurred overseas will have to be declared in the standard mark from section 18 or 19, as appropriate.

If the food was grown, produced or made in Australia and the proportion by ingoing weight of Australian ingredients varies over time, the information may be in the form of a mark that includes a statement of the average content of Australian ingredients and a means for consumers to access further details off-pack, in accordance with section 21. The mark includes the following features:

      * a logo to assist the consumer to easily identify the food was grown, produced or made in Australia:

      * one of the following bar charts to provide a visual indication of the average proportion, by ingoing weight, of the food's Australian ingredients:

      * a Made in Australia statement, together with a statement aligned with the bar chart that indicates the average proportion by ingoing weight of the food's Australian ingredients and how to get further details about the Australian content of the food.

Food packaged in Australia

If the food was packaged in Australia (but not all of the food in the package was exclusively grown, produced or made in Australia), the labelling must include one of the standard marks set out in section 22 (subject to section 23). These marks do not include the kangaroo logo, but do include a bar chart, a Packed in Australia statement and an Australian ingredient statement, aligned with the bar chart, similar to that for food that was made in Australia. Where a particular ingredient is sourced exclusively from a particular country, text naming the origin of that ingredient can be added to the standard mark.

If all the food is from a single country, the label must at least state that the food in the package was grown, produced or made in that country, and may include a standard mark that also includes a statement that it was packed in Australia, together with an unfilled bar chart.

If the food was packaged in Australia and the proportion by ingoing weight of the food's ingredients varies over time, the information may be in the
