Primary industry stream program
Market outlook for primary industries
Under the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IA-CEPA), more than 99% of Australian agricultural products can enter Indonesia duty free.IA-CEPA provides opportunity to diversify our primary industries exports beyond established trade links.
Western Australia’s reputation as a reliable supplier of clean, safe and high-quality food provides an entry-point for local producers to supply Indonesia’s growing interest in premium food and beverage products. This includes opportunities for businesses supplying red meat including beef and lamb, fruit, vegetables, dairy products, wine and other premium packaged foods. As meat consumption rises, it is expected that the demand for animal feed in the livestock sector will also increase. While consumption of milk and dairy products also grows, there is an opportunity to supply dairy cattle, in addition to dairy products manufactured in Western Australia.
