Rangelands of central-western Queensland. Building resilient and diverse livestock production systems

Abstract

This report details the economic analysis of alternative livestock enterprises applicable to building resilience and profit in the rangelands of central-western Queensland. Accompanying reports in this series present strategies and results for other regions across Queensland's grazing lands. It is intended that these analyses will support the implementation of resilient grazing, livestock management, and business practices necessary to manage seasonal variability. The property-level, regionally-specific livestock and business models that we have developed can be used by consultants, advisors and producers to assess both strategic and tactical management decisions for specific properties.
