Wool shipments to Japan in the past two months were more than the wool exports to Australia’s seven next biggest customers combined, according to figures issued today by the Commonwealth Statistics Bureau. They show that Australia received £46,110,000 for wool for export in July and August, including £19,090,000 from Japan alone. During this period Communist China emerged as the seventh biggest customer for Australian wool, taking 9 057,0001 b of wool for £2,469,000. This was ten times the amount taken by Communist China in the same period last year.
