Demand for organic products is growing rapidly in Australia, yet there have been few systematic reviews of the opportunities and constraints to increasing production. This publication examines the prospects, impediments and R&D needs of five Australian primary industries (rice, vegetables, wine grapes and viticulture, sugar and the dairy), as gathered through consultation with those involved in the industry, in one-day workshops, interviews and field trips. The consultative process focused on growing systems and examination of market chain relationships. 2004, 82pp, Pub No 03/112
