In March 2025, ABARES was commissioned to conduct an independent review into the relationship between growers and integrated producers in the Australian chicken meat supply chain.
The review was to examine whether there is evidence of market failure within the industry, and if so, potential actions that could be introduced, as applicable.
An interim report is now available for stakeholder review and comment by 5pm Friday 24 October 2025, with a final report to government due as soon as practicable thereafter.
Submissions to the interim report can be made via email or the department’s Have Your Say page.
