Overview
2017/18 Australian Hor�culture Sta�s�cs Handbook
This Handbook is an analysis that combines all available data on produc�on, interna�onal trade, processing volumes and fresh market distribu�on in order to produce sta�s�cs on 75 hor�cultural categories over the year ending 30 June 2018.
Summary of Approach
The Handbook adopts a modelling approach that centres on determining the fresh market value and volume for each category, that reconciles produc�on with local and interna�onal distribu�on channel throughputs. Fresh market supply volume is determined as follows:
Fresh Supply = Produc�on - Fresh Exports - Processing + Fresh Imports
�� Farm gate produc�on quan�ty has been informed through a number of sources, including Hort Innova�on funded data projects, hor�cultural government levy data where available, and refined through consulta�on with informed industry bodies. The corresponding value of produc�on is calculated from wholesale pricing informa�on, before removing known logis�cal, marke�ng and wholesale costs to reflect product value at the farm gate.
�� Export and import trade volume and value is based on Australian Customs data as reported in IHS Global Trade Atlas data.
�� Processing data has been obtained through consulta�on with industry processors1.
See pages 16 and 17 under ‘research method’ for a detailed descrip�on on this Handbook’s methodology.
1Note that the $ value of processing volumes has not been included in the analysis.

This publica�on covers the year ending 30 June 2018 and examines the produc�on and distribu�on of hor�culture products. Some of the key influences on hor�cultural produc�on and distribu�on over this period are summarised below.
Produc�on condi�ons recovered from the previous year’s disrup�ons with impacts most apparent on the supply of fresh vegetables. Some fruit and berry crops were adversely impacted by unseasonal frosts. In these condi�ons the wholesale value per kg of fresh fruit and vegetables supplied to the local market decreased by 2.0% to $2.42 per kg.
The supply of product into the domes�c food market is influenced by the condi�ons in the retail channel. The drivers of these condi�ons which were centred on expanding retail entrants, growth in direct to home channels and increases in ea�ng away from home, all combined to li� the level of retail compe��on.
Total fresh hor�culture exports were valued at $2.15 billion in 2017/18, 6% higher than the previous year. The increase in export value was primarily driven by citrus exports, with cherries, summerfruit, walnuts and carrots also showing strong growth.
Export market op�mism has con�nued to flow into business confidence and is now reflected in the value associated to those with export market exposure.

Availability of valid sta�s�cal informa�on is a key enabler across hor�culture. The Australian Hor�culture Sta�s�cs Handbook for the year ending 30 June 2018, is presented by Hor�culture Innova�on Australia for the purpose of consolida�ng hor�culture sta�s�cal informa�on for use by hor�culture industry members and other stakeholders.
The informa�on sources for this publica�on have drawn on data available from the Australian Bureau of Sta�s�cs, Hort Innova�on funded projects, interna�onal trade sources and hor�culture industry representa�ve bodies (IRBs) where available. In this publica�on these sources have been expanded to include and draw on household consump�on and local market distribu�on channel informa�on, as assessed by Freshlogic, to provide a reconciled profile of each supply chain.
Note that ‘Imports by state des�na�on’ refers to the final des�na�on of the product. ‘Exports by state of produc�on origin’ refers to the state of origin where that product was produced.
Where addi�onal informa�on has led to a change in the previously quoted value from the 2016/17 edi�on for a category, this has been noted on the page of the relevant category.
This edi�on of the Handbook is made available electronically via the Hort Innova�on website, at www.hor�culture.com.au
Hort Innova�on will evaluate the uptake and usage of the Handbook to ensure that future edi�ons are delivered according to user needs.

Category—A par�cular hor�cultural commodity (e.g. bananas), or in some cases a combina�on of like commodi�es (e.g. the category ‘rubus berries’ covers raspberries and blackberries and other rubus). Produc�on—The volume in tonnes of the category that was grown in Australia over the year. This refers to produc�on which was sold by the producer, either to the Australian fresh or processing markets, or to interna�onal trade markets. This does not cover any produc�on that was not harvested, nor does it refer to any other forms of produc�on of the category that do not enter these markets. Value of Produc�on—Some�mes referred to as ‘Farm Gate Value,’ this is the value of the produc�on received by the producer. Processing Volume—The volume in tonnes of the category that was sent to be processed, such as juicing, freezing or preserving. Fresh Exports—The volume in tonnes of the produc�on that was exported in a fresh form to other countries. Due to the way trade informa�on is recorded, this may include some dried products, and will be marked as such where appropriate. Value of Fresh Exports—The value in million dollars of the category’s fresh exports. This is recorded in FOB (Free on Board) dollars. Fresh Imports—The volume in tonnes of the category that was imported into Australia from another country in a fresh form. Value of Fresh Imports—The value in million dollars of the category’s fresh imports. This is recorded in CIF (Cost of Insurance and Freight) dollars. Fresh Supply—The volume in tonnes of the category that was available to the Australian market in a fresh form. Volume supplied to the fresh market is typically either sold at retail or supplied to food service outlets. Wholesale Value—The value in million dollars of the fresh supply at a wholesale market level, inclusive of net interna�onal trade flows. Note that the Wholesale value is dis�nct from the Gross Value of Produc�on tracked by the ABS, as that measure includes value of processing and exported product, and does not include imported product. In-Shell (Nut categories) —A measure of volume that includes the weight of the inedible shell around the kernel. Kernel (Nut categories) —A measure of volume that only includes the edible kernel. Crack Out Yield (Nut categories) —The percentage of edible kernel obtained from the in-shell volume during the cracking process.

Supply chain—Nuts & Olives This example supply chain outlines the flow of a nut category over the year ending June 2018. Because nuts are sold both in an In-Shell and Kernel format, the nut supply chain profiles both elements, indicated by green for In-Shell and orange for Kernel. The chain contains the following elements:
1. Produc�on. This is the volume of the category grown in Australia over the
year ending June 2018. This profiles the Produc�on (volume in tonnes), in both In-Shell (wri�en in green and denoted by IS) and the Kernel equivalent of this volume a�er cracking (wri�en in orange and denoted by K), as well as the value in million dollars obtained by the producers i.e. the Value of Produc�on.
2. Exports. The volume in tonnes of the produc�on that was exported, and the value in million dollars received. This profiles both In-Shell exports and Kernel exports.
3. In-Shell Export Share. The percentage share of In-Shell produc�on that was exported.
4. Cracking. The volume in tonnes of the In-Shell produc�on and imported In-Shell product that was sent to be cracked so as to produce kernel. This profiles both the In-Shell volume in, and the Kernel volume out.

Research Method
Overview This publica�on has gathered all available hor�cultural informa�on and aligned it into supply chain profiles for each of the hor�cultural categories covered. The approach for each hor�cultural category has been to quan�fy available produc�on, volumes processed, volumes exported and imported, and to then confirm that the resul�ng fresh volume supplied aligns with the Australian market distribu�on channels (primarily the retail and foodservice channels). This volume of fresh supply available to the Australian fresh marketplace is defined using the equa�on:
Fresh Supply = Produc�on - Fresh Exports - Processing + Fresh Imports
The distribu�on channel modelling has drawn upon Freshlogic’s THRUChain modelling system to ensure that fresh supply accommodates the sum volumes distributed by retail and food service channels. In the process of this modelling, informa�on has been gathered from a number of supply chain sources and aligned with household consumer purchase metrics. The primary outputs are designed around aligned supply chains that map the distribu�on of total produc�on. This design was used to deliver the most informed and accurate profiles and the outputs have been further confirmed by conferring with Industry Representa�ve Bodies. The larger Industry Representa�ve Bodies have advanced supply chain informa�on systems in place and the outputs from these systems have been accessed to provide data inputs and validate findings.
In calcula�ng the produc�on and volume processed, a number of data sources have been relied upon. Where available and in most instances, this has been guided by informa�on from Australian government hor�cultural levies, and refined through consulta�on with the Industry Representa�ve Bodies and major trading stakeholders (such as processors, wholesalers and distributors) for the par�cular category.
Informa�on on Australia’s imports and exports of fresh and processed hor�cultural commodi�es has been compiled using the Global Trade Atlas®, an online global trade informa�on database owned and operated by IHS Markit. Informa�on on Australian trade in the Global Trade Atlas® has been compiled
2017/18 Australian Hor�culture Sta�s�cs Handbook
15/03/2019
from informa�on provided to the Australian Customs and Border Protec�on Service. The Import and Export analysis tables for each category iden�fy the import source country under “Imports by country” and the export des�na�on country under “Export by country”.
Informa�on on wholesale value has been modelled using wholesale pricing informa�on from Ausmarket Consultants and the Chamber of Fruit and Vegetable Industries in Western Australia. This informa�on has been used to define the Value of Produc�on by removing known logis�cal, marke�ng and wholesale costs to calculate the value of categories to producers at farm gate.
Consumer informa�on including percent of households purchasing a category, and average purchase quan��es, has been sourced from Freshlogic’s MealpulseTM
consumer survey and DocketDataTM systems. Supply per capita has been calculated as total volume of fresh supply divided by popula�on for the year ending June 2018 according to the ABS. The number of occupied households is assumed at 9.01 million and the popula�on at 24.9 million for the 2017/18 year*.
Data on produc�on area and number of trees has been gathered from Industry Representa�ve Bodies and the ABS Agricultural Commodi�es publica�ons**. This informa�on has been included for indica�ve purposes only, and should be viewed as such.
Informa�on on major growing regions has been sourced both from the ABS Agricultural sta�s�cs, and through consulta�on with the major Industry Representa�ve Bodies. These sources have also been used to profile seasonality and produc�on volumes by state and by main variety of the category. Note the informa�on on volume by state and main variety has been included for illustra�ve purposes, and actual volumes may be within 10-25% of the listed volume.
Throughout the document when data sources have been relied upon, this has been noted. Some of the more common sources have been abbreviated. The full list of sources has been provided on pages 18 and 19.
