No Fixed Price For Wool Proposed In NSW Debate
Dr Boyd, vice president of the Graziers Association of Southern NSW, condemned a government proposal for a minimum fixed wool price and a marketing body akin to the Bawra scheme. He argued it would distort surpluses to prop up year after year prices and cited market instability, with about 500000 bales valued at roughly 124 million pounds. The plan, he said, would require large-scale intervention and harm market signals.
