How you had your say

We sought feedback from relevant industry stakeholders regarding the relationship between growers and integrated producers in the Australian chicken meat industry.

You gave feedback through:

  • face-to-face meetings held around Australia

  • an online survey

  • written submissions.

What happens next

Your feedback will assist us in examining if there is evidence of market failure in the Australian chicken meat industry. If market failure is identified within the industry, ABARES will examine the nature, drivers and effects of this market failure, and the costs, benefits, and impacts of potential regulatory and non-regulatory actions that could be introduced to address identified issues.

ABARES will release a draft report for public review and comment by mid-2025, with a final report to be provided to the Commonwealth Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry as soon as practicable thereafter.
