Abstract
Western Australia has a small dairy industry compared with its other rural production. However, the industry has consolidated over recent years.
Tree clearing and pasture development on existing holdings and the amalgamation of small dairy farms has led to a rapid increase in the area of pasture per farm. The trend in Western Australia is towards bigger herds, more efficient dairies, more fodder conservation and increasing production per cow and per· hectare.
