MEAT IN PIECES
TRADE WITH AUSTRALIA
"Country Life," the official organ of the Graziers' Association of New South Wales, declares that "stock owners of Now South Wales are face to face with a new peril." The article states that the Sydney meat market is being glutted, not only with meat from Queensland and Victoria, and cheap low-grade pieces and meat sundries from outside the metropolitan area, but also with an avalanche of boneless meat from New Zealand.
Between August 28 and September 15, the article, continues, 43,1061b of veal pieces and 46.0611b of pork pieces were unloaded on to the Sydney market, an operation that is described as "foisting the Dominion's inferior meat on Australia." The journal fears that this is only the beginning of a sparkling new trade for the Dominion.
"Dumping of any inferior meat on the Sydney market must undermine Homebush and fat stock prices generally. "Country Life" insists that this new torrent of trouble shall be shut out from Australia quick and lively," the article concludes.
