An Australian Agricultural Council briefing shows farm income in 1968-69 higher than 1967-68 by about 400 million but below the 1964-65, 1966-67 peaks. Anthony notes gains in outputs like dairy, barley, and sugar despite drought and rising input costs, with rural exports forecast to improve and total meat and cereal production rebounding.
