proposed RD&E programs and deliverables for further assessment and consideration by the RMCIC. These priorities have been identified and developed in consultation with beef producers, industry RD&E consultative entities (the North and Southern Australia Beef Research Councils) and the Cattle Council of Australia (CCA): National Sheepmeat Production RD&E Strategy The National Sheepmeat Production Research, Development and Extension Strategy was developed at the request of the Australian Primary Industries Ministerial Council.

Wool production; 2. Wool supply chain management and; 3. Demand growth and wool industry resilience and growth.

Data from 17 independent sources were used to identify 71 species that are already widespread and abundant (“prominent weeds”) and 18 that are still relatively restricted (“emerging weeds”). Literature on the economic costs of weeds to livestock industries were reviewed. Species were prioritized using a decision tree approach based on distribution and abundance, current and potential impacts and availability of effective control
