Australia's Federal Government Provides $2m To Aid Pork Exports

The Federal Government will provide $2 million to help improve export opportunities for the pork industry in Australia.

As part of the initiative, the Government will work with the industry to help it better meet the needs of overseas buyers.

The funding announcement comes a week after the country's Director of Quarantine signed off on a new policy, opening Australia to pig meat imports.
