The Australian Olive Oil Association reports that Americans consume one quarter of Australia's olive oil output; two million liters annually. Australian Agriculture Minister Peter McGauran reports that the government has given a $385,000 grant to develop an industry code of practice. California producers have been asking for similar help from the US government without success.
