Description
Agricultural consultants, economists, policy makers, and tertiary level students, will find this monograph an invaluable reference for quantitative estimates of the effects on the macroeconomy, on the structure of Australian industry and, especially, on farm incomes, of a diverse array of changes in the economic environment. The following are examined in detail: changes in world agricultural prices; the EEC Common Agricultural Policy; protection for manufacturing industries; an expansion of the mineral resources sector; a change in the tax mix in favour of indirect taxation; a movement in the exchange rate; a change in the real wage rate; and aggregate demand managenment.
