Australias agricultural export earnings have been forecast to remain strong in 2013 despite a slight dip in previous expectations.
Export earnings from the agricultural, fisheries and forestry sectors could be around AU$38.9bn in 2012-2013, according to figures released by the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES). The figures do forecast a 1% decline in exports, but ABARES said it was still higher than the average over the previous five years.
