ABS released data contains final estimates for data items collected in the 2014–15 Rural Environment and Agricultural Commodities Survey (REACS). The statistics on livestock areas and production were used to estimate biomass volumes for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment Project. Livestock industries may include cattle (meat and dairy), sheep and poultry. Piggery data was derived from source data provided by Australian Pork Limited in the form of pig number data for pig farms in all Australian production states (2016/2017), without business names and with locations only given generically at post code level to protect privacy. 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
