14 January 2019
Focus area: International competitiveness
Program stream: Technical market access & markets
Project number: 2019-1011
The objective of the project was to better understand red meat industry processing costs by gathering of data on cost economics in Australia, Brazil, and Argentina. 

The project determined that there is a viable pathway for collaboration on processing costs economics between the countries. 

Having a deeper understanding of the processing cost economics of these countries and their drivers, through collaborative research would provide the Australian industry with invaluable information and intelligence on the nature of the challenges and opportunities.
