Agriculture in recession: the regional financial performance of Australian broadacre livestock farming

Michael Taylor

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The paper explores the extent of regional variations in farm financial performance in the broadacre livestock sector in Australia between 1984-85 and 1990-91. Widespread regional shifts are demonstrated. From a series of multivariate analyses, it is suggested that financial performance has been maintained by shifting the burden of production into more marginal physical environments, with the implication that the practices may be environmentally unsustainable.
