Major trends in the Agrifood Sector

• Population growth– Pressure on agricultural land – Employment in regional areas under stress

• Environmental changes– Climate change & adaptation– Water availability and security


Major trends in the Agrifood Sector

• Import Competition– Decreasing commodity prices– Import / export regulations– Carbon protectionism

• Sustainability Compliance & Labelling– ISO 50001 Energy Management System– Carbon Disclosure Project/ Global Reporting Initiative– Other Customer requirements


Market dominance by retailers


Drivers for action by business

• Cost– Rising for energy, water, emerging for carbon

• Competitiveness– Tighter margins, ‘green’ differentiation

• Compliance– Increasing regulatory burden as Governments

seek to overcome market failures to act• Community expectation

– brand reputation• Customer

– Supply chain pressures


Redefining Business Success

• Not just financial measures• Engagement of a broader range

of stakeholders• Mutual understanding of needs• Understanding how your

business will fit into a new business paradigm

Organisations will develop at different speeds and early movers will create sustainable competitive advantage

Industry & organisational evolution


Australian trends, policy and legislation


Australian Energy Trends

• The cost of energy in Australia has been at a significant discount with respect to the rest of the world for the past decades. This is changing for a range of reasons including:– Water shortages has limited capacity of some large centralized

electricity generation stations • Tarong & Swanbank in QLD limited to 50% in 2007-2008

– LNG exports are causing natural gas prices to rise to world market levels

– Underinvestment in electricity networks• Significant increases in grid electricity out to 2020• Possibilities for distributed generation?

– Increasing scarcity and rising cost of petroleum– Increased renewable energy targets (MRET)

• Land use decisions• Competition by biofuel for arable land

Efficiency to underpin carbon abatement to 2020

Energy efficiency is forecast by the International Energy Agency to be the major source of carbon reductions out to 2020 in industrialised countries


McKinsey’s MAC analysis agrees

McKinsey’s analysis shows energy efficiency to be among the most cost effective carbon abatement measures


Australian Water Trends

• Cost increasing – across Australia– Melbourne increase by an average of 20%– Sydney Water increase by 25-34% by 2012 – Queensland – 30% increase of bulk water

• Water - yet to reflect true cost of provision• Businesses

– Water cost increasing but let’s face it - water cost insignificant– True cost

• Future trends– Move to scarcity pricing models– Diversity of water supplies and carbon prices will increase cost– Invest into infrastructure - $30 billion dollars over next ten years

• What is important to you?• Where do you want to be?• How does the global situation impact you?• Are you prepared?

Identify business initiatives & plans

• Identify your current initiatives that your business is doing / planning that align with economic, social and environmental performance goals– List business initiatives– Map onto Venn diagram– Where do they fit?– [provides basis for understanding business approach,

defining your current approach, and starting to highlight ‘gaps’ in your systems that you may want to close
