Opportunities for plant industries

The Northern Territory (NT) is renowned for growing mangoes and melons. It supplies more than half the mangoes and over one third of melons produced in Australia. The NT also grows a range of tropical, sub-tropical and temperate fruit, vegetables, flowers, stock feed and forestry products.

There is significant potential for further development of plant industries in the NT to grow food, fibre and foliage.
