It is a great day for agriculture when we see the December figures come out and quite clearly show the capabilities and competence of this side of the House—of this government. When we look at agriculture, forestry and fishing, just listen to these numbers. For the trend for September 2016 to December 2016: a 7.4 per cent trend for the percentage change. For December 2015 to December 2016: 20.4 per cent. Seasonally adjusted, the percentage change, September 2016 to December 2016: 8.3 per cent growth.
