In 1981, there were 158 cooperative wool marketing pools and 9 cooperative warehouses. Pools operate a few days each year to assemble and sell wool. Warehouses operate daily and also grade, store, and blend wool to buyer specifications. Pools frequently sell without knowledge of grade and clean fiber content. Producer bargaining power is also limited by declining wool production, large variation in pool membership and volume, and overlapping marketing territories among warehouses. Processing, consolidating pool and warehouse marketing, and changing pool pricing to reflect clean fiber content are options to lower marketing costs and better market power. |

This paper summarises the development, structure and data sources of the Western Australian World Wool Model. The model is a comparative static, partial equilibrium model of the world wool market. The technique used for the model is applied general equilibrium (AGE) modelling. Western Australia is separated from the rest of Australia as a production region. A key feature of the model is that raw wool is broken down into 9 different qualities, which determine the end use of the wool. The construction of a database containing these wool qualities is detailed. Potential uses for the model are outlined, and results are compared and contrasted with earlier structural models of the world wool market. Finally, advantages and disadvantages of the approach taken... |

Decisions by Australian wool producers were modelled with a technique combining personal construct psychology and hierarchical decision models. Both strategic and tactical approaches were evident in wool producers’ responses to the risks associated with producing and marketing their wool. Strategic responses included avoiding short to medium-term response to price changes, diversification, maintaining equity and selling wool at auction in the same sale each year. Producers identified many types of risk, with each engendering a distinctive response. Similarly the context of a decision appeared to have a major influence on the attitude to risk. Simplifying decision rules were apparent that helped producers deal with the physical, information, and processing... |

A total of five different Corriedale flocks (respectively initiated in years 1976--1980), totalling 2,561 breeding ewes, were first mated at 19-20 or 30-31 months of age. Lifetime production data on: a) fleece weight and its components (as measured by greasy fleece weight, washing yield, clean fleece weight, fibre diameter and staple length), b) reproductive performance (as evaluated by the number of lambs weaned/ewe joined and lamb weaning weight/ewe joined) and c) ewe liveweight, were investigated within each flock up to 1982. Considering the environment provided in the study, the results indicated that earlier mating in these Corriedale ewes depressed their subsequent wool quantity, yet there was no appreciable effect upon wool quality components and... |

Wool weight, fleece components and reproductive performance of Corriedale and Romney sheep joined within three periods (14 january-25 february, 01 march-12 april and 15 april-27 may) and stocked at two rates (10 ewes/ha and 15 ewes/ha) on paddocks of winter improved pasture (Trifolium repens and Lolium multiflorum) up to weaning, were examined during 5 years (1977-1981) at EMBRAPA, Bage, RS, Brazil. In the environment employed, the results were consistent in showing that Corriedales were superior to Romneys either in wool quantity and quality or in reproductive performance, and indicated that when 10 or 15 ewes are stocked per hectare, the higher stocking rate did not cause any harmful effect on both wool or reproductive components. Fleeces produced from... |
