Australian grains industry advocacy and trade expansion

Overview

The Australian grains industry has focused on strengthening organizational advocacy and expanding international trade opportunities.

Initially, GrainGrowers established new partnerships through memorandums of understanding with Grain Producers South Australia and NSW Farmers. These agreements, formed after those state-based groups departed from Grain Producers Australia, aim to increase the collective influence of growers on national advocacy issues.

Following these organizational developments, industry leaders at the Australian Grains Industry Conference called for a unified approach between the government and the grains sector to unlock South-east Asian markets. Leaders emphasized that promoting scientific research, export standards, and policy development is as essential as the grain itself, citing the successful recovery of the Indian chickpea market as a model for effective inter-agency and international cooperation.
