Dairy production across Australia declined sharply in the nine months to March due to dry conditions last year. Commonwealth Statistician S. R. Carver reports total milk output reached 1.0469 billion gallons, down 103.1 million from 1956-57. Largest drops occurred in Queensland and Victoria, with smaller gains in Tasmania. Butter output also fell markedly, underscoring widespread drought impact on farming across states.
