Beef as a major agricultural export In terms of domestic production, Queensland was the largest beef-producing state, with production of both grass and grain-fed beef common.

While local demand may drop, the global meat demand will likely more than compensate for the difference. In fact, Australia already exports the majority of the meat it produces. The primary export markets for beef include the United States, China, and Japan.Future challenges With Australia looking set to establish itself as an even bigger contributor to the global market, adoption of new technologies will be important to ensure production can keep up with demand. Challenges revolve around having a large enough semi-skilled workforce, accurately forecasting yield and harvest timings, and reliance on seasonal workers. Agriculture technology, or AgriTech, may hold the solutions. Globally, the value of smart farming looks set to expand to a multi-billion-dollar market. Australia may need to quicken the pace of AgriTech adoption to stay competitive in this market.
