  • Foreword

    Agricultural commodity statistics is the principal annual data publication by ABARES, providing a comprehensive compilation of data on the Australian economy and the agriculture, food, fisheries and forestry industries. The most recent available data are combined with historical data across a broad range of indicators to provide useful information to decision-makers on the physical and financial characteristics of the rural sector.

    The information contained in Agricultural commodity statistics underpins and complements ABARES analysis and other publications, including quarterly ABARES forecasts presented in Agricultural commodities, our national and regional Outlook conferences (daff.gov.au/abares/conferences-events), Australian crop report (quarterly), Australian forest and wood products statistics (biannual) and Australian fisheries statistics (annual).

    A range of data products and tools can also be found at daff.gov.au/abares. These cover a wide spectrum of economic and physical data and information that can be downloaded at national, state and regional levels.

    The website also contains our 201213 profile and work program. Visit the website for a full picture of what we are doing and how we can help you.
