farm business profit Farm cash income plus build-up in trading stocks, less depreciation and the imputed value of the owner–manager, partner(s) and family labour. farm cash income The difference between total cash receipts and total cash costs. farm equity ratio Calculated as farm business equity as a percentage of owned capital at 30 June. imputed labour cost Payments for owner–manager and family labour may bear little relationship to the actual work input. An estimate of the labour input of the owner–manager, partners and their families is calculated in work weeks and a value is imputed at the relevant Federal Pastoral Industry Award rates. off-farm income Collected for the owner–manager and spouse only, including income from wages, other businesses, investment, government assistance to the farm household and social welfare payments. profit at full equity Farm business profit, plus rent, interest and finance lease payments, less depreciation on leased items. It is the return produced by all the resources used in the farm business. rates of return Calculated by expressing profit at full equity as a percentage of total opening capital. Rate of return represents the ability of the business to generate a return to all capital used by the business, including that which is borrowed or leased. The following rates of return are estimated: rate of return excluding capital appreciation; and rate of return including capital appreciation.

Western Australia Spring rainfall in Western Australia was average to below average but timely and supported winter crop prospects. Below average maximum and minimum temperatures resulted in crops developing over a longer than average period, which is expected to boost yields in most regions. However, severe frosts in September adversely affected grain development in some areas, particularly in the south-eastern parts of the central cropping zone. Some locations recorded their lowest September temperatures on record and frost on around 15 days in September and October. Crops further south were less affected by these frost events because they were less developed and less susceptible to frost damage at the time. Total winter crop production in Western Australia is forecast to increase by 10 per cent in 2016–17 to 16.1 million tonnes, driven by expected increases in average yields. Wheat production is forecast to rise by 8 per cent in 2016–17 to 9.5 million tonnes. The average yield is expected to rise by 9 per cent as a result of generally favourable seasonal conditions. Barley production is forecast to be largely unchanged in 2016–17 at around 3.2 million tonnes. Forecast increases in yields are expected to offset a reduction in planted area. Canola production is forecast to rise by 23 per cent in 2016–17 to 1.8 million tonnes, largely because of an expected 19 per cent increase in average yield. Canola prospects were less affected by frost than those of wheat, barley and oat crops. Early harvested yields and oil content were high, particularly in the northern cropping zone. 11 Winter crop forecasts, Western Australia, 2016–17 Crop Area ’000 ha Yield t/ha Production kt Area change % Prod. change % Wheat 5 125 1.86 9 533 0 8 Barley 1 325 2.45 3 246 –2 0 Canola 1 240 1.45 1 798 3 23 Lupins 361 2.00 721 11 62 Note: Yields are based on area planted.

1958-63 MG MIDGET & AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE ADJUSTABLE REAR SUSPENSION LINK TRAILING ARMS - $120 INCLUDES (8) ROD END SPACERS, (2) LINK ARMS AND (4) ROD ENDS WITH (4) JAM NUTS. Using these 2 links arms you replace the original stamped steel non-adjustable stock arms with DOM seamless steel tubing. DOM is extremely strong and used in many high-end applications such as rollcages and high abuse 4-link suspension systems. When installing these new link arms make sure to not overtighten the mounting bolt as the aluminum misalignment spacers can be deformed. These only work on cars with the 1/4 elliptical rear suspension. 1958-78 MG MIDGET & AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE FRONT TAPERED WHEEL BEARING CONVERSION KIT - $90 This kit includes the bearings, wheel seals and cotter pins to replace the stock original front "ball-bearing" style wheel bearings with tapered roller bearings. These are direct replacements for the Sprite and Midget. This kit may include Timken, National, URB, Harwal or Motor City bearings and seals.

test of time. In essence the features enjoyed by early adopters are still those enjoyed by today’s users: the speed of publication due to automated processes, the use of text base content to enable minimum file size and downloads, and the logically structured layout providing quick access to the vast resources within. The scope and breadth of the content available on AustLII is enormous: it has 700 separate databases. Let me give one simple example of the breadth of impact AustLII has had on access to legal information and how it has brought that information to us. My example is the Australian Treaty Database – the Commonwealth’s treaty collection. In times past a Library would either have had to subscribe in hard copy or contact the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and ask for supply. No longer. The collation, digitisation and release of this content is typical of the great improvement to legal research that AustLII has made in their 20 years. And, so I am told, there are literally hundreds more examples like this – content that you don’t know you need, until you need it. It is also worth highlighting AustLII’s inspiration for and collaboration with Legal Information Institutes in other countries through a consortium aptly named “WorldLII”. WorldLII is an excellent gateway to legal information of other countries, both familiar and unfamiliar. The history of that unfolding story is also recorded on the 20 year timeline. Add to that AustLII’s free-access case and journal article citator, LawCite, and the whole package is a fabulously efficient research tool.
