During the past nineteen years there has been a marked change in the proportion of livestock of all types, slaughtered in metropolitan, as compared with country areas. During this period there has been a continuous movement of slaughtering to country districts with the result that the proportion of livestock slaughtered in the metropolitan area is now considerably lower than it was in the early thirties. This movement has been most marked in the case of calves, but it is noticeable in all types of livestock. |

The role of the agricultural economist in rural extension is discussed with particular reference to the changing structure of extension, exemplified by the development of private consulting services and the changing orientation of extension from purely technical considerations to problems of management. The status of the agriculturist generally, and of the extension worker in particular, is also examined and it is concluded that the status of extension as a profession must be raised if the results of technical and economic research in agriculture are to be utilised effectively. |

The mechanisation of the dairy industry in New South Wales has proceeded gradually over the past fifty years; however, the rate of increase in the use of mechanised equipment during that period has been far from uniform. The introduction of milking machines at the turn of the century resulted in the first significant use of machinery in the dairy industry. Prior to 1900 the quantity and value of machinery on dairy farms was almost negligible, but by 1920 dairy machinery was valued at almost £1 million, the value having doubled between 1900 and 1910, while between 1910 and 1920 it almost doubled again. Nevertheless, during the twenties the use of machinery did not continue to expand at such a rapid rate as during the years prior to 1920, and with the onset... |

The financial year which ended 30th June, 1947, was the fourth year in which a group of selected wheat growers kept complete records of their financial transactions in co-operation with, and in Record Books provided by, the Division of Marketing and Agricultural Economics. Reports covering the records kept in 1944-45 and 1945-46 have already been published in this "Review". The notes which follow deal primarily with the financial position of the fifteen farmers who kept records during 1946-47. However, some comparisons with earlier years are made. |

One of the principal objectives of the survey of a group of wheat farms in the central-west of New South Wales, conducted by the Division of Marketing & Agricultural Economics in February and March, 1951, was to ascertain the cost of operating machinery in use in the wheat industry. An account of the survey, which was carried out on 94 farms in the Shires of Goobang and Jemalong and in the Municipalities of Parkes and Forbes) was published in the previous issue of this journal'. In this article consideration will be given to conclusions drawn from this survey as to the cost of operating tractors and selected implements. The implements selected for consideration-the twin-disc plough ("sundercut"), scarifier, combine and header-include all but two of... |
