“The Horticultural Policy Council’s (HPC) report, ‘The Way Forward – Future Directions for Horticulture” (August 1992) and a number of other studies have examined aspects of the competitiveness of the Australian horticultural industry.
As a follow up to the report, HPC established a Working Group to undertake in-depth analysis into the international competitiveness of the Australian horticultural industry.  The Working Group appointed consultants to assist with this process.
The consultants were engaged to undertake case studies for the following seven products: apples, pears, oranges, broccoli, onions, cut flowers, and processed sweet corn.  Each team member was allocated responsibility for a particular industry. 
the aim of the case studies was to identify factors that need to be addressed, and to suggest strategies, to achieve and/or maintain international competitiveness in the horticultural sector at individual, industry and government levels.”
