Australia's Food and Nutrition 2012

This new report from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare highlights the key components of the food and nutrition system. It describes the system from 'paddock to plate' and how food choices affect our health and the environment.
There are detailed sections on the types of food we produce, how it's distributed, how we choose our foods and how they are advertised.  It also looks at our diet and how that can be improved, and then goes on to discuss global issues such as food waste and security, biodiversity and the effects of climate change.

You can read the full version of the report, or a handy "In Brief" booklet.
