Chapter Ninety-Six: Changes in Agriculture and Animal Husbandry (Ask for Subscription!) )
Population growth is crucial for Australia, and if it can maintain at least 100,000 immigrants and more than 120,000 new people every year, Australia can effectively alleviate the embarrassing situation of underpopulation.
Because of various large-scale construction, Australia's per capita income has also come to more than 10 pounds. Correspondingly, taxes have also increased.
In 1901 Australia's total revenue was about £4.3 million, and its total expenditure was £13,000,000.
Although the fiscal balance is extremely unbalanced, this is due to the fact that a large amount of construction has been started. Without the cost of these constructions, Australia's finances would have run a surplus of nearly £2 million a year.
Australia's Treasury also has a large amount of money, and although it spends more than £10 million a year, the Treasury has more than £150 million in available funds.
According to the Treasury, Australia added thousands of self-employed households in the previous year.
Most of them have started their own small factories and small shops, and have become shopkeepers and owners themselves.
Although their funds are small, the big ones are less than a thousand pounds, and the small ones are even only tens or hundreds of pounds.
But compared to the previous situation in Australia, there has been a lot of progress.
Among these people, it is not necessary to come out of Australia's richest man, so as to drive the development of Australian enterprises.
In addition to these, the construction of nursing homes, orphanages, hospitals and schools is also progressing steadily.
In terms of people's livelihood, Arthur attaches great importance to it. This has also led to a large investment in people's livelihood by the Australian government.
Of course, a lot of investment also brings a lot of returns. The total number of orphanages and nursing homes has exceeded 50, and the number of elderly people and orphans has exceeded 5,000 and 3,000 respectively.
This has housed most of the elderly and orphans, and has made the adoption of the elderly and orphans a great success.
In Australia, when it comes to retirement homes and orphanages, people look with enthusiasm and admiration in the direction of the estates, where their trusted monarch lives.
Needless to say, the school is one of the projects that the government attaches great importance to.
To date, Australia has nearly 200 primary schools and 20 secondary schools, with tens of thousands of new students entering school every year.
Although the number of new university students in 1901 was not large, only in the early 600s, but in the two years combined, more than 1,400 college students were born.
Because Australian National Universities generally adopt a half-theory, half-practice teaching method, these college students will be able to enter the workforce very smoothly after graduation.
With the Victoria Award, Australia has attracted high-end talents, and then set up education to improve the shortage of low-end talents.
In this way, Australia's talent development system will gradually take shape, bringing vigorous development potential to Australia's research and other industries.
The medical sector has not moved much, and it has maintained the basis of only one large hospital per state.
However, the medical department has maintained a supportive attitude towards the establishment of some small clinics. It will even provide financial support to some small clinics with development potential.
According to the statistics of the Ministry of Health, there are currently more than 30 private clinics in Australia, including more than 10 in New South Wales.
These small private clinics can also make a significant contribution to Australia's healthcare environment, even more so than building new hospitals in the face of a shortage of medical talent.
In terms of the number of talents in Australia, even if only one large hospital is established in each state, it is already facing a serious talent vacancy.
In addition to the departments of the State Hospital of New South Wales in the capital, which have been gradually established and opened to the outside world, some departments of other hospitals are still facing talent problems.
This situation may only be solved by the Victoria Prize. By attracting world-renowned medical talents, and then cultivating low-end medical talents, we can hope to completely solve the shortage of medical talents.
The influx of Aboriginal people has also made ample changes to another sector in Australia: agriculture.
Originally, due to the lack of manpower, land development in Australia was very slow, and it can even be described as a turtle speed.
The large number of immigrants to Australia did not come to farm, but to mine gold and other valuable minerals.
This is also the reason why these immigrants have low incomes, they come to pan for gold, but few people make a lot of money from panning for gold.
A large number of people immigrated to Australia because of the gold rush, but often became one of Australia's poor civilians.
Now, with the participation of indigenous people, Australia's land development, especially arable land, has made significant progress, not only has the per capita land become more, but the per capita arable land area has also increased significantly.
It has ample implications for Australia's food production. Although it was not obvious in 1901, according to the estimates of the Department of Agriculture, Australia in 1902 was able to produce enough food to feed about 8 million people, which means that with the current population, Australia's annual food production could not only feed the entire population, but also be able to export a large amount.
In terms of animal husbandry, Australia is not too much to give. In terms of cattle and sheep, there are already more and more pastures in Australia, and the number of farmers is increasing.
This has led to the fact that meat in Australia is very cheap, which is why there is plenty of beef and mutton in the food supply for troops and university students.
At least in terms of logistics, especially in terms of food, Australia has maintained the same level of food supply as European countries.
Each soldier was able to eat two meals of meat a day, a treatment that most soldiers from other countries did not have.
In addition to the common beef and mutton, the school will also hire chefs from other countries to cook other sumptuous dishes, so that these students can satisfy their appetites while studying.
While this will cost the Australian National University thousands or even tens of thousands of pounds a year in logistics, it is definitely worth the expenditure of a little money in front of these university students.
In addition to the changes in agriculture and agriculture, Australia's road construction has also undergone a huge change.
In particular, the roads between the cities have all been renovated and expanded after the cement plant in the industrial area has been expanded.
This is not only to prepare for the sale of cars in the future, but also to effectively strengthen cultural and economic exchanges between Australian states and cities.
