While Australia is one of the few countries in the world which grows everything it needs, the country still imports numerous tinned and manufactured products from other countries such as China, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Pakistan, India and Norway.

However, Australia grows a great deal of its own food - and unfortunately exports a lot of it as well. Greengrocers in Australia offer a fantastic array of fruit and vegetables, most of which are locally grown. There is a huge variety of fruits and vegetables - apples, oranges, melons, citrus, tropical, pears, potatoes, onions, salad vegetables, carrots, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes - anything you can imagine. Australia has a very strong stonefruit industry (cherries, peaches, apricots, nectarines, etc) while the tropical areas supply pineapples, mangoes, and bananas.

Sugar cane is a significant industry in the eastern and north-eastern regions.

Australia grows a lot of cereal crops - wheat, barley, oats for example and also leguminous crops - beans, lentils, chickpeas.

Livestock are also "grown" and bred in Australia. Beef cattle is a thriving food industry, as are sheep for meat ("fat lambs"), pigs and poultry. Given that milk is a food, one should also include dairy cattle in the list.

Corn is an increasingly popular food crop, as is rice, believe it or not.
