Abstract

The Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia (DAFWA) is leading Northern Beef Futures, a four year $15 million project funded by the State Government's Royalties for Regions program, to transform Western Australia’s northern beef industry through improving markets, businesses and productivity. The Northern Beef Futures project will support the success of the beef industry to capture new market opportunities, particularly in Asia, and secure sustainable growth.

ACIL Allen Consulting (ACIL Allen) has been commissioned by DAFWA and Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA) to conduct an audit of infrastructure supporting the beef industry in the Pilbara and Kimberley regions, referred to as the northern beef region.

The aim of the Northern Beef Infrastructure Audit is to determine constraints and opportunities and from them identify projects that will encourage and support the development of the beef industry in the northern beef region. The Audit has been conducted in four phases. A comprehensive report has been produced for each of Phases 1 to 3 and is available from DAFWA and MLA on request.
