Economic Aspects of Wool in Western Australia

在过去的15年里，佤邦的羊毛业经历了从萧条到繁荣的过程。该项目开发了一个一般均衡模型，以分析世界经济状况对羊毛行业和佤族经济的总体影响。我们还将调查弗里曼特尔羊毛价格系统性较低的原因，以及澳大利亚羊毛价格和汇率之间的相互作用。这些结果将增进对该行业的了解，并为未来如何通过向羊毛种植者和政策制定者提供有价值的信息来降低该行业的波动性提供见解。

Over the past 15 years, the wool industry in WA has gone from bust to boom.. This project develops a general equilibrium model to analyse the impact of the world economic conditions on the wool industry and the WA economy in general. We will also investigate the reasons for the systematically lower wool prices in Fremantle and the interactions between Australian wool prices and exchange rates. The results will enhance understanding of the industry, and offer insights as to how it might be made less volatile in the future by providing valuable information to woolgrowers and policy makers.
