2020 report by ABARES

Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences analysis of government support for farmers shows Australians rate among the least subsidised in the world.

It is well worth reading this report published in 2020 by ABARES.

According to ABARES, unlike Australia, other barley producers around the world enjoyed government support equivalent to an average six per cent of their farm revenues.

The ABARES analysis confirms findings in a recent report by the Australian Farm Institute and GrainGrowers which highlighted Australia having about the lowest levels of agricultural support across the 37 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member countries.
