the Australian consumer, by inlarge, has been conditioned to shop for lowest prices..they may go into the store with intentions of buying aussie grown but the instore advertising of generic brands persuade most consumers on a budget. SPCA will more than likely fail in some capacity and the aussie consumer will no longer have a choice on buying product that is grown under govt regulations and auditing processes that growers undertake annually for chemical residue and environmental standards. forget about the economic impact on the rural communities, the food we will be offered will be supplied by whichever nation can land it in oz the cheapest and food safety standards will lapse.
