Wool bounty debated by Australian Wool Growers Council
The Australian Wool Growers Council in Sydney discussed seeking government support to help wool growers obtain prices closer to parity. Chairman Mr. J P Abbet said the industry faced a mismatch between production costs and prices beyond growers’ control, urging government action to finance a bounty from public funds rather than distort global markets. A similar resolution passed at the annual convention of the Australian Woolgrowers Council.
