Overview



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 2016.

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 18 and 19 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.

24/05/2017

This publica�on covers the year ending 30 June 2016 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.

Further growth in export markets has liGed the profile of Hor�culture,

s�mula�ng more interest as some categories pass the �pping point of

distribu�ng more volume through export than domes�c markets. Total

fresh hor�culture exports liGed to $2.1 billion, with significant increases in

the exports of citrus, table grapes, macadamias, and carrots.

The more consolidated and invested producer base shows the capacity

influence of the domes�c supply chain. This is reflected in; the control of

plant variety rights; longer term contracts with trading partners and the

differen�a�on of products, which combine to enable these suppliers to

assert more influence on where their product is distributed and how value

is captured.

The domes�c market remains dominated by the compe��ve intensity in

the retail channel with the growth generated being a ributed to products

in smaller por�ons and meal ready forms. The food service channel is

genera�ng growth as consumers are drawn into using more technology-

enabled ordering tools and are spending more of their food dollars on

ea�ng out, confirmed by a moderate increase of 2.2% in the turnover of

Cafes, Restaurants and Catering Services over the 2015/16 period, per ABS

Retail Trade Sta�s�cs.

These influences are expected to prevail in the near term.

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 2016, 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.

The 2015/16 Handbook has been compiled by Freshlogic. In this edi�on, there

have been some changes to the way some categories and products have been

profiled compared to the 2014/15 edi�on. Major changes include:

• Olives now profiles the produc�on of table olives, and olive oil, with a focus

on olive oil as this is the predominant product form for Australian olives.

• Prunes (Dried Plums) has been separated from the “Other Dried Tree Fruit”

category.

Where addi�onal informa�on has led to a change in the previously quoted value

from the 2014/15 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.

Any comments regarding the Handbook should be forwarded to Hort Innova�on

24/05/2017

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 2016. 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 2016. 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 aGer 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

• Produc�on Area/Number of Trees/Vines. A measure of the growing area

of the category (in hectares), or the number of trees/vines used to grow

the category over the year. This data has been gathered from the

Australian Bureau of Sta�s�cs Agricultural Sta�s�cs informa�on, the

largest survey of growers available. This informa�on has been included for

indica�ve purposes only, and should be viewed as such.

• Export Volume and Value. The volume in tonnes and the value in million

dollars of the category exported in a fresh form over the year.

• Import Volume and Value. The volume in tonnes and the value in million

dollars of the category imported in a fresh form over the year.

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



24/05/2017

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 2016 according to the ABS. The number of households are 8.3 million

and the popula�on was at 24.1 million*.

Data on produc�on area and number of trees has been gathered from Industry

Representa�ve Bodies and the ABS Agricultural Sta�s�cs informa�on**, the

largest survey of growers available. 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
