Australian Wool growers and Graziers Council economist G Chislett warned at its annual convention that rural production costs rise about 4.5 percent yearly, faster than living costs, threatening net incomes. He urged productivity gains, cautioned against further import restrictions on Japanese cars, and said Japan could source wool elsewhere or switch to synthetic fibre.
