Dataset: Australia's wheat supply chains: infrastructure issues and implications


Description

KeyDocument 01
This study provides a detailed analysis of the wheat supply chains of the two biggest wheat producing states, Western Australia and New South Wales, with a focus on: providing a snapshot of the existing wheat supply chains in these states, including estimates of supply chain costs; identifying current infrastructure impediments affecting the movement of wheat from farm to port; illustrating the potential impacts of increasing wheat production and rationalising the rail network on the shares of wheat transported by road and rail and the spatial pattern of road and rail use.
