Farm stocks rebound but still low
Updated Mon Mar 29, 2010 5:52pm AEDT
A new survey has revealed farm confidence in Western Australia has improved slightly but still remains at very low levels.
The Rabobank survey found 75 per cent of the State's producers expect conditions to improve this year after a very disappointing 2009 season.
The State Manager, Crawford Taylor, says while grain producers remain the least confident about their situation, livestock producers have been buoyed by high red meat prices.
Mr Crawford says many farmers are struggling to break even with a high Australian dollar, fluctuating commodity prices and high input costs.
"Things can't really get much worse than what they are," he said.
"We're at a base, so hopefully things won't get any worse than what they were in 2009."
