Agriculture in the rural heartlands provides high quality food and fibre for domestic consumption and export making significant contributions to national earnings. The heartlands are the custodians of our natural resources and cultural heritage and farmers play a vital economic and social role in the sustainability of these regions. While there is considerable variability between these places this research will provide a detailed understanding as to why it is that rural places differ in their development. A major benefit will be to present Australian governments, the agricultural industry and rural communities with a more accurate picture of how the rural heartlands now function, and to articulate the public policy implications.

农村中心地带的农业为国内消费和出口提供高质量的粮食和纤维，为国民收入做出了重大贡献。中心地带是我们自然资源和文化遗产的监护人，农民在这些地区的可持续发展中发挥着至关重要的经济和社会作用。虽然这些地方之间存在相当大的差异，但这项研究将详细了解为什么农村地区的发展不同。一个主要的好处将是向澳大利亚政府、农业产业和农村社区提供一个更准确的农村中心地带现在如何运作的画面，并阐明公共政策的影响。
