| This investigation examines the impact of intensive farm management advice on levels and productivities of resource use on samples of farms. A total of 60 members of 13 farm management advisory services and 60 non-members, matched by locality, were studied in two farming regions of Western Australia. A production model has been formulated and analysed which discriminates between effects of differences and changes in resource use and productivity over time and between members and non-members. Major differences between members and non-members over time have been rates of growth of inputs and outputs rather than systematic changes of production relationships. |

| Bounty payments on fertilizers have rapidly emerged as a major form of assistance to Australian agriculture. They have been justified as a way of reducing costs and increasing productivity, though economic theory and experience from agricultural production studies suggest that they achieve these objectives inefficiently. The bounties are directed towards making acres more productive, which should in turn make farmers more productive. It is suggested that greater economic welfare would result from tackling the problem the other way round. |

| The Industries Assistance Commission came into existence in 1974. It extends to all industries, including the rural industries, the system of public scrutiny of advice regarding assistance. This paper considers the ethos of the IAC's establishment. It discusses some criteria which are features of the IAC's operation, and which are considered to be necessary for an effective public inquiry process. Finally, it comments on the relationship of the IAC to other policy objectives and other advisory instrumentalities. |

| This paper discusses accuracy of recording, allocating and valuing in the context of comparisons between farms of efficiency ratios and gross margins. Some experiments were conducted to investigate the effects on rank orderings of livestock gross margins of (i) different allocations of failures to reconcile between recorded sources and recorded uses of livestock, and (ii) of random changes in valuations of livestock. The outcome of the experiments suggests that inaccuracies which occur in farm recording, allocating and valuing can lead to wrong classifications of farms into groups for comparative purposes. |

| The Report commenced, appropriately, by addressing the federal contract within which Australian agricultural policy is set. The Australian Constitution limits what can be done by the Commonwealth and State Governments and establishes procedures for settling arguments about where jurisdictions lie. There is a wider constitutional framework than the Constitution itself. It includes, for example, the Australian Agricultural Council which is the major means of co-ordinating powers and resolving conflicts between the Commonwealth and states in the field of agricultural policy. The federal contract also includes the wide range of co-operative approaches to policy, such as statutory marketing intitutions and the complementary legislation which supports them. The... |

| The accounting system of the Farm Management Service Laboratory of Western Australia is discussed. As a point of reference it uses the system approved by the National Workshop on Standardization of Terminology and Procedures in Farm Management Accounting in Australia. The Laboratory's system is expressly designed to provide a continuous flow of information to the farmer for his control, understanding and evaluation, planning and budgeting, and enhancing credit-worthiness. |

| The present article relates to pastoral firms in a drought-prone environment. For such firms, it explores the economic relationship between stocking rates, drought possibilities and fodder reserves. (1) The analysis shows that an optimal stocking rate can be ascertained for any given pattern of drought incidence. Using Queensland data, an empirical application covering a range of fodder, livestock and livestock product prices is presented. Nothing is said of the macro aspects of fodder storage for drought relief; nor of the optimum level of livestock population on an aggregate basis. Likewise, the analytics of supplementary feeding for production--as distinct from drought feeding for survival--are not explored on either a micro or a macro basis. Still, the... |

| Types of control are briefly reviewed. It is asserted that control problems are of growing importance in farm management. Opportunities for control in farming are identified. An outline is given of the necessary ingredients of a financial control system for farm management. By way of example, a test is made of a hypothesis about the nature of financial control among a sample of commercial farmers. Finally, problems of planning for control are briefly examined. |
