It was also because of the influx of immigrants and the increasing number of Aboriginal workers engaged in agriculture that Australasia's total grain production exceeded 6.7 million tonnes for the first time in 1907, the highest since the country's founding.

According to the current per capita consumption of food in Australasia, the food produced in 1907 alone was enough to feed more than 20 million people, not to mention the various meat and dairy products brought by Australasia's developed animal husbandry.

Thanks to more immigrants and indigenous people, Australasia's per capita arable land has risen by about 10%, and this is due to an increase in the agricultural population.

If we look at the population growth rate in 1907, it will take another five years for the population of Australasia to officially exceed 10 million.

Before World War I, there should have been more than 10 million, although not as good as other powers, but the population problem was not so serious.

What's more, the proportion of British people in Australasia has always been above 70 percent, which is a major factor in Australasia's domestic stability.

Australasia's per capita annual income has also been rising. Since Arthur arrived in Australia, the region's per capita annual income has been on the rise.

By the end of 1907, the per capita annual income in Australasia had reached 43 Australian dollars, the per capita annual income in Australia was 44 Australian dollars, and the per capita annual income in New Zealand was 40 Australian dollars.

The two colonies, New Guinea and Timor, have per capita incomes of $35 and $14 respectively.

Timor's per capita annual income is not of much value, after all, it has only been a few months since Timorse became a colony of Australasia, and the most important task for Timorse at present is to restore order and stability.

At present, Australia and New Zealand have successively stepped into the happy life that people dream of, and on the basis of food and clothing, the medical and educational needs of Australians have also been well met.

The current Australasian population has a general share of savings, and a significant number of them have small assets.

Under the patronage of the royal consortium, Australasia gave birth to a large number of petty bourgeoisie during this time, as well as a large number of small workshops and factories, as well as shops and paving in the name of private individuals.

These have also made great contributions to the economic prosperity of Australasia, and they have also led to the economic development of Australasia in disguise.

Sydney now has three of the busiest shopping streets, with vendors from all over the world selling and marketing their products.

As Australasia grows in economic development, Australasia's fame is growing in Europe.

This is also the reason why there are more and more European immigrants in Australasia, and under the premise of ensuring food, clothing, housing, transportation, medical care and education, Australasia's immigration attraction seems to be no weaker than that of the United States.

Of course, the most attractive thing is that Australasia not only does not have dark chocolate, but also has a large number of indigenous labor, which can work for free and can also have a large number of indigenous labor.

Although it is in the form of a lease, after all, it has enough labor to work for itself. This has made the dream of many Europeans who dream of becoming farmers and factory owners come true, after all, it is much better to be a capitalist yourself than to go to the United States and be oppressed by others, isn't it?

After all, the welfare policy of Australasian workers and civilians had already spread in Europe and the United States, and many people had a good opinion of Arthur as a monarch who worked hard to protect the interests of the common people, even if he was in a free republic.

Even in countries as recognized as the world's great powers, such as Britain and Germany, people are not guaranteed to be treated as firmly as they do in Australasia.

Although the workers in Australasia do not earn as much as the great powers, they do not have to worry about their wages being deducted, oppressed and exploited.

Not only will wages be paid on time, but Australasian workers will also enjoy legal holidays, a triple of overtime pay on holidays, important holiday greetings and small celebratory gifts.

After all, the factories have a lot of indigenous labor to exploit, so they don't have to take a lot of risks to exploit those workers.

How easy it is for the natives to use, they don't have to worry about life or death, they don't have to worry about food when they are in a bad mood, and every time an aboriginal dies, the government will re-send the natives to replenish it, so there is no need to worry about the natives being insufficient.

After all, the area currently controlled by Australasia alone has millions of indigenous people, and the Dutch East Indies and Southeast Asia have hundreds of millions of indigenous people, and the rate of consumption of indigenous people in Australasia is completely incomparable to the rate of reproduction of indigenous people.

At present, the most frequent use of indigenous people in agriculture is the colony of New Guinea. The colonies of New Guinea had just over 30,000 people, but as many as 100,000 indigenous people worked in agriculture.

New Guinea's crop production accounts for one-third of the total production of the Kingdom of Australasia, as high as about 520,000 tons.

New Guinea alone produces enough crops to feed three regions: New Guinea, Timor and New Zealand.

What's more, New Guinea is not a small country, and the development of arable land has only just begun.

If hundreds of thousands of indigenous people are invested in this area, it can become the big breadbasket of Australasia. By that time, New Guinea alone would produce enough to feed tens of millions of people.

Thanks to domestic food production, Australasia has now established one or more large grain silos in every state except Timor, the largest of which is Newcastle in New South Wales, with a storage capacity of more than 200,000 tons, which can meet the annual food needs of millions of people.

The reason why Newcastle's granary is so large is that the capital territory is not large, so it naturally attaches more importance to the construction of industry and economy.

The Sydney Granary in the ACT has less than 100,000 tonnes of reserves, so some of the Newcastle Granary is for Sydney.

Together, all the granaries in Australasia have nearly 1.5 million tonnes of reserves, which is theoretically enough to feed six million people for a year.

If you add in Australasia's well-developed livestock industry, even if Australasia does not produce any food in a year, there is no need to worry about any famine.

After a year's worth of grain in the granary, it will be sold to neighboring countries in need of grain, and the vacancy will be filled with new grain.

After all, it is not good to leave food for a long time, not only is it easy to mold and insects, but the taste and taste will also be greatly reduced.

At present, Australasia's annual grain exports also generate significant revenues. Especially during the previous East Asian famine, Australasia's grain exports were very profitable.

Of course, it is precisely because of the wealth of domestic grain production and the development of animal husbandry that the value of grain and meat products in Australasia has not been high, and eating full meals and meat is really common in Australasia.

In fact, the number of hospitals has not changed much, after all, in addition to the construction of hospitals, in addition to the cost of a lot of money, also need enough experienced doctors to sit.

But the Ministry of Medicine was not without action in 1907. The Ministry of Health has promulgated a medical policy that benefits the people, which can greatly reduce people's medical pressure.

Among them, a single medical expense of more than 20 Australian dollars can be included in the scope of medical reimbursement in Australasia.

The reimbursement scope is generally not more than 30 percent, but it should be at least 10 percent.

If a single medical expense exceeds the per capita annual income of the local people, the reimbursement scope is generally between 20% and 40%.

If the single medical expense is more than twice or more of the local per capita annual income, the reimbursement range is generally between 40% and 50%.

This policy mainly takes care of patients with serious illnesses, so that the vast majority of Australasian people can also be treated when facing a relatively large illness.

After all, having a serious illness is still a serious burden for Australasian people at present, and the vast majority of Australasian households will not have more than 100 Australian dollars in savings.

As for treatment under $20, although the government also has certain welfare policies, the reduction rate is generally less than 5%.

After all, it is more common to have various minor diseases, and if the reimbursement is too much, it is also a problem for the government's finances.

While the strength of reimbursement policies may not seem that great, they are rare in today's world.

It is precisely because of this medical benefit that Australasian people are very proud of their country and government, and they always remember the change that Arthur has made in their lives.

Of course, this is also an important reason to increase the attractiveness of Australasian immigrants. Such preferential medical policies are so rare that even the top powers like Britain and Germany would not dare to do so.

The reason why Australasia enacted such a medical policy is because 50% of the welfare policy is funded by the royal family.

This is equivalent to half the government's money, and Australasia's current population is not large, so the financial burden is not too large.

However, such medical welfare conditions are not insignificant for Europeans.

Even Europeans, who claim to be civilized, would never have such preferential policies in their countries.

Because this is a huge burden on the country's finances, and even the slightest carelessness can cause the country to go bankrupt.

More importantly, perhaps the state can afford such a welfare policy, but it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and from luxury to thrift.

In the future, if the government changes and wants to cancel the policy, it will depend on whether the people who enjoy the policy agree or not.

This is also the real reason why the vast majority of European countries still ignore it, knowing that this will greatly win the hearts and minds of the people.

If the current shortage of medical supplies, especially medicines, can be solved, most of Australasia's medical problems can be solved.
