Overview of Australian agriculture

With the leading agricultural commodity exported from Australia being beef and veal, livestock is a vital part of the Australian agricultural sector. This is followed closely by wheat, which is the most exported crop of Australia. While a major part of the nation’s grain production is exported globally, a substantial part is also used domestically in the provision of food and livestock feed. The leading destination for agricultural exports from Australia was China, at over double the value of exports to the next biggest market.

Australian horticulture

With the production of fruits, nuts and vegetables, horticulture is the third-largest agricultural sector in Australia. Fresh fruits make up almost half of the sector’s exports, followed by nuts and fresh vegetables. Oranges, bananas, and apples are the leaders in the country’s fruit production volume. Asia imports the main share of Australia’s horticulture products, and China took the lead again; the country was the key export destination for Australia’s fruit products.
