Body

The main agricultural industry in South West Queensland is rangeland grazing. Historically, this has encompassed wool production, however, a decline in the sheep industry and an increase in the cattle industry is now evident, due in part to an increase in wild dog predation and low commodity returns for wool products. . . . .
