2017 Annual Interpretive Summary


Using data published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and the Australian Bureau of Agriculture and Resource Economics, a third set of data on nutrient use and agricultural productivity was collated to provide regional estimates of nutrient balance for nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and sulfur (S) across Australia. The results add to earlier data sets giving three audit periods. In collaboration with the Centre for eResearch and Digital Innovation at Federation University, a revised website page was loaded and the data can be found at http://www.ozdsm.com.au/ozdsm_map.php
