BFA: Australian Organic Producer

Australian Organic Producer is the quarterly magazine for those wanting to learn about biological production and the organic market as well as solutions to agricultural and environmental problems affecting production. While the outlook for agriculture and the environment seems grim with real threats to food security from scarce resources, soil depletion, climate change, and other issues - organic production is providing an alternative, more resilient way forward for future food and fibre production. The magazine is available for members or by subscription. 
 

Australian Organic Producer features an question and answer section including producers' questions on every aspect of farming with answers from qualified industry advisors and experienced organic farmers, industry news on cropping, broad acre, livestock and other production types, articles on large scale and small scale production, profiles of successful producers, research and development news, a directory of allowed farm and livestock inputs, and a directory of advisors and other service suppliers for organic primary production. Some highlights from the latest 2009 issue of Australian Organic Producer are waste not want not with natural dietary zeolite, steering sheep along the organic country road, finding and maintaining markets, organic farming – an early champion, and added value: BD dairy secures premier’s award.
