Abstract
The emergence of Australia as an industrialised nation has meant that like every other western
country with a
similar economic base, 1 has a "farm problem" This arises
from the disparity between the average income per head of working population in the economy as a
whole, and the lower average income of operators in agriculture (Heady and Ackerman, 1958; Higgs,
1966; Hannan, 1970J The main cause of this imbalance is the slow growth of markets for farm
products as real incomes in the economy rise (Shannon, 1955; Samuelson, Hancock and Wallace,
1970; James, 197l).
