The fat lamb industry has been gaining increasing importance in Australia during recent years. Expansion of production has been encouraged by favourable prices relative to wool, by the extended application of diversified farming methods and by the preference of our chief customer, the United Kingdom, for lamb rather than mutton. The gradual increase in the proportion of crossbreds to merinos over recent years is an indication of the rising interest being shown in fat lamb raising. The proportion of crossbred wool grown in New South Wales alone increased from 9 per cent. to 17 per cent. of the total clip during the war. |

The purpose of this article is to provide a brief description of the pattern of farming in New South Wales as illustrated by the diagram map which is to be found at the back of this issue. The map shows the approximate location and extent of the regions where the chief rural products are produced. Symbols have been used to indicate the centres of production and the relative importance of some of the less significant products. On the basis of the type of fanning carried on, the State may be divided into several regions. tile dairying region of the Coast, the merino-mixed farming association of the Tablelands, the region of mixed farming based on wheat growing of the Slopes and eastern portion of the Plains and the extensive strong-wool merino region... |

In an attempt to determine the lost of production of apples and pears in the Batlow district, several orchardists in the district kept detailed records of time, labour and materials used in the production of their fruit during the seasons 1944-45 and 1945-46. Results for the first year for nine farms have already been published and results for the following season, together with a comparison of costs for two years, are set out in this article. For the 1945-46 season seven of the original nine farmers continued to participate in the scheme. It is not proposed to describe the method used in recording and analysing the production costs. A description and discussion of the method used appears in detail in the article referred to above. Results for the 1945-46... |
