Appeals To Raise Australia Food Exports This Decade
Australia must lift export earnings by about 20 percent by 1960 to avoid ongoing balance of payments problems, said Mr McMahon. He urged renewed rural expansion and stressed cooperation with the Agricultural Council and industry groups to accelerate overseas earnings and counter competition from man made fibres. He noted wheat sales and wool prospects for the coming season while projecting a 1956 57 rural production rise and a potential carryover of 92 million bushels if demand falters.
