ABS released data contains final estimates for data items collected in the 2014–15 Rural Environment and Agricultural Commodities Survey (REACS). The statistics on crop and horticultural area and production were used to estimate biomass volumes for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment Project. Agriculture data includes Cereal Straw, Non Cereal Straw and Hay & Silage. The Drought Minimum and Bumper Maximum has been calculated by using the total tonnage of a drought/bumper year as a percentage of the total tonnage of an average year and applying these percentages to the total for each region. (41% and 158% respectively). See RenewablesSA website for more information including metadata and data sources. http://www.renewablessa.sa.gov.au/investor-information/bio-energy-roadmap/biomass-for-bioenergy-assessment
