Lamb exports fatten
18 Jan 2005

Meat and Livestock Australia said that lamb exports for 2004 totalled 111,600 tonnes, the second highest level of exports on record, and 340 tonnes shy of the record set in 2000. Exports increased by six per cent on the level for 2003, with many export destinations reporting record totals, including the US, China and the middle east. The Chinese market for Australian lamb expanded by 44 per cent in 2004, to 9,370 tonnes.
