ABARES is delivering commodity forecasts, research and analysis directly to rural and regional Australia at the one-day Regional Outlook conferences. There are seven conferences held around Australia, one in each state and the Northern Territory.

Promoting industry productivity, community vitality and environmental sustainability, the 2012 conferences will balance national and regional perspectives; focus on the future; and emphasise agricultural, fisheries and forestry strategies that work in a context of economic volatility and climatic variability.

ABARES invites collaboration from regional, state and national agencies to focus on industries and issues relevant to each region. Delegates from businesses, government, and the community will discuss industry trends, access forecasts and other information, make new contacts in their community and be exposed to new ideas while gaining an understanding of global issues that affect their region.
