A total adds up every farm that answered. An average per farm is the average across those farms. An All farms figure per hectare, tree or tonne divides the industry total by the total area, trees or output, so larger farms count for more. A figure is withheld when fewer than 5 farms answered, when one farm makes up more than 80% of a total, or when showing it would reveal another withheld figure. No individual farm data appears on this page.
