    That's OK as the crops have yet to be planted this year, We can always grow a different cereal crop especially if barley is only going to fetch $40 a tonne

    Not compared to the billions of tons exported through Port Hedland they don't.

    We should put levies back on to every country that levies our products.

    If we did that we would have still had a car industry - Thailand used to tax our commodores big time but we would just let all those twin cab utes come in at virtually no tax.
    Cheers

    Qld's five coal export terminals exported 223,000,000 tonnes in 2018. Dalrymple Bay, Abbot Point, Hay Point, Gladstone, Port of Brisbane. Total coal exports including NSW's effort was 380,000,000 tonnes add 23,000,000 tonnes of natural gas from Gladstone.

    And yet the tree huggers still insist on shutting down the coal mines, I wonder if they are going to dip into their own pockets to replace this revenue

    Education and tourism would be in there.

    Isn't this where the COV19 virus originated from
    This pandemic certainly shows just how fragile tourism and education are as exports.
    550% is a Huge call considering that we have bugger all manufacturing here in Aus.
