Pig Industry Plight Urges Government Action In Australia
Mr J Howse Liberal member for Calare urged urgent federal inquiry into the pig industry decline in Australia. He said many responsible for the drop are Government controlled and bacon curing faces serious trouble. He noted NSW 1947-42 pig production fell from 737,900 to 404,924 and warned a 66 percent rise is needed to reach peak output. The sector, linked to dairy, involved about 166,000 dairy farmers amid broader production issues and rising costs. The push included expanding subsidies and addressing price controls and a redrawing of market signals to curb black market dealings and encourage farmers to repurchase breeding stock.
