Major agricultural exporter

Despite its relatively small contribution to the country’s total GDP, agriculture remains a crucial economic sector in Australia, with agricultural commodities trade forming a notable share of Australia’s total exports value each year. While the value of agricultural exports from Australia declined in 2021, the industry grew substantially in 2022 and 2023.
