The Small-Farm Problem In Australia

Author

  • McKay, D.H.

Abstract

The nature of the small-farm problem in Australia is discussed from a welfare point of view. The situation is examined industry by industry where data are available. It is suggested that while the average level of farm income in Australia compares well with non-agricultural earnings, there are some industries with very significant numbers of low income farms.
