This report analyses the market prospects for growing gluten-free grains in Australia. It provides data on production, health attributes, use and trade.
The report examines market size and analyses the prospects for a number of the grains that are, or could be grown in Australia specifically for the gluten-free market. The seven gluten-free grains, or ‘health grains’, identified are amaranth, buckwheat, millet, quinoa, sesame, sorghum and teff.
