Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: This dataset estimates the mass in dry tonnes of piggery manure residues potentially available across NSW, Australia. This information has been collated for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment (ABBA) project and will be available for use on the Australian Renewable Energy Mapping Infrastructure (AREMI) platform, to build a national map to service the renewable energy sector. 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 piggery manure 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 pigs, only manure as excreted was calculated at the SA4 level. 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. piggery manure can be collected by a deep litter or conventional system). Without this information, calculating the bedding component was not acheivable. For more detail about the methodology and assumptions used in the manure calculations please see the piggery 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.
