SEPTEMBER QUARTER

Summary Comments

Agriculture, forestry and fishing
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate rose 7.5%. The increase was primarily driven by rises in grains, cotton and livestock production. Decreases in area planted, increased rainfall and decreased input costs also contributed to the rise.

Mining
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate fell 0.8%. The decline was driven by Exploration and mining support services (-7.2%), Other mining (-3.1%), Oil and gas extraction (-1.3%), and Coal mining (-0.5%). A rise in Iron ore mining (1.2%) partially offset the falls.

Construction
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate fell 3.6% driven by falls in all subdivisions, this is in line with the reduced growth observed in private and public investment.

Retail trade
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate fell 0.8% driven by a fall in Food retailing. This is the first decline for the industry since June quarter 2013.

Information media and telecommunications
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate rose 1.6% driven by rises in telecommunications and internet services.

Rental, hiring and real estate services
  • The seasonally adjusted estimate fell 2.4% driven by Property operators and real estate services.
