South Australian Food ScoreCard Reports

In 1997 the South Australian Premier implemented a strategy to expand the revenue generated by the South Australian Food industry to $15 billion by the year 2010.

As part of achieving this goal, the Food South Australia Program introduced a ScoreCard to measure and evaluate the value of the contribution made by food and beverage to the economy, through the value chain from production to consumption.

SA food production reaches a record $3.5 billion

The 2009/10 Food Scorecard shows mixed results with generally improved seasonal growing conditions contributing to growth in farm output and finished food value-adding (particularly for Livestock). By contrast a sharply rising Australian dollar and subdued overseas export demand has combined with falls in the value of local consumption (retail and food service) to reduce growth in the headline Gross Food Revenue measure.
