Improving road transport for primary production - Update

The 90 Day Change@SA project ‘Improving Road Transport for the Agriculture Industry’ identified opportunities to improve efficiencies in the state’s agriculture sector and is delivering significant benefits to primary producers and transport operators.

The project is a partnership between Primary Producers SA, Primary Industries and
Regions SA and the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure. The Wine Grape Council of SA is a key member of Primary Producers SA and has had significant input on the PPSA Transport Committee. 

In 2017, a second survey ‘Improving Road Transport for Primary Production’ was conducted, building on the success and momentum of the first project. The survey, which raised 90 issues, asked primary producers and industry groups to identify key issues affecting productivity.

A total of 494 respondents participated in the survey. The new survey reached out to new sectors across the forestry, dairy, fresh produce, fisheries and aquaculture industries, as these had minimal interactions with the initial survey.
