what historical factors affected th esupply of wheat in australia in early year sof white settlement?

Answer 1

While it seems that wheat should be an easy enough crop to grow its development in Australia had a rather shaky beginning. The introduction of a penal colony in Australia and the subsequent lack of experienced work force denied the agricultural industry not only the needed skilled labor but also the priority of need. To add to this the control of land, especially fertile land under the till, made it difficult to begin the process of growing food stores beyond cattle and sheep farming, which was the earliest introduction of land usage.
