I came across the article on the ABC Wide Bay website re the Avocado cuttings growing quicker.On the local (Wide Bay) channel 7 news last night, the local avocado producers have received a $1.5 million grant from the Qld. government to improve the growing time of seedlings.

I see this para on that website, I did not know they were getting Avo's from New Zealand.
Australians eating more avocados than ever
Australians are among the highest consumers of avocados in the world, eating about 86,000 tonnes of avocado in the past 12 months, or 3.5 kilograms per person.
Australia only produced 66,000 tonnes in that period, with the remainder imported from New Zealand.
Costco always has great fresh food
Our nearest Costo is nearly 400klms away, I wish we had one closer.
