South Australian Food Industry Overviews

Primary Industries and Resources SA (PIRSA) conduct detailed value chain analyses for each food industry.

This information is used to create the South Australian Food Industry ScoreCard, which measures the commercial value of each industry. The ScoreCard measures all of the value adding components of food revenue; we measure how the value increases from the ‘paddock to the plate’. This involves looking at each stage of the food chain from production to processing and through to consumption. From this economic analysis, the following are identified: the farm gate value of production; exports; imports; inter-state trade; retail sales; and the contribution made by the food services (hospitality and tourism) sector.
