Layer: NSW Poultry Manure (SA2) (ID: 2)

Name: NSW Poultry Manure (SA2)

Display Field: REGION_NAME

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: This dataset estimates the mass in dry tonnes (wet tonnes also given) of poultry manure and bedding residues potentially available across NSW, Australia. This information has been collated for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment (ABBA) Project (2015-2020) and is available for use on the National Map platform, to build a national map to service the renewable energy sector. It is also been used for the Climate Change Fund - Biomass for Bioenergy Project (2018-2023) and will be available for use on a DPI interactive tool platform that will assist a range of stakeholders including landholders/farmers, project developers, policy makers and academics. It is planned to update the dataset in the future with more current volumes and improved location accuracy of residues. The boundary features were extracted from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) digital boundaries [Copyright Commonwealth of Australia administered by the ABS]. This dataset is mapped at the Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2). Each SA2 region shows the average annual poultry manure and bedding residues for the period July 2010 to June 2015 (average of 5 years). The SA2 residues were derived using the 'parent' SA4 region residue totals (calculated using the ABS ASGS Agricultural Commodities, Australia, cat. no. 7121.0 data cubes and from research carried out by the NSW Forest Science unit, Department of Primary Industries - Forestry) and by applying calculated percentages using livestock numbers from the ABS 2010-11 SA2 agricultural survey data to determine the distribution of residues at this level. Please note the location of residues for the SA2 maps is based on the 2010-11 livestock distribution. Note: For Layer chickens, only manure was calculated. For Meat chickens and All other poultry, manure plus bedding was calculated. This is due to limitations of the ABS dataset in that it does not detail the type of system employed at the farming scale (i.e. caged, barn or free range). Without this information, calculating the bedding component was not achievable for some livestock. For poultry, although this information was not available, assumptions from literature were able to be used and applied beyond regional boundaries across NSW. For more detail about the methodology and assumptions used in the manure and bedding calculations please see the poultry SA4 level dataset. Some SA2 regions were merged and the results were combined. Most commonly merged regions were built up areas contained wholly within the same regional area (i.e. Goulburn and Goulburn Region were merged) or adjacent regions that were either small or built up areas.
