Food deserts by country

Australia

In Western Australia, a dearth of high quality and affordable fruit and vegetables in isolated regions was identified as one factor limiting consumption along with produce seasonality.[7] A 2014 review found that the less populous and very remote areas of the state had fewer grocery stores and higher prices for fruit, vegetables and dairy than in the city. Of these stores, 20% did not generally supply produce that met all quality standards with a few exceptions, unlike urban areas with exceptions for lettuce and green beans in Perth.[8] Geographical data were not analyzed for prevalence of low income residents to define areas as food deserts.

A five-year campaign to increase access to healthy foods started in 1990 and led by the Department of Health in Western Australia and industry groups had mixed success.[7] The department later developed a new private/public partnership to address access and consumption of fruit and vegetables.[9] A 2008 audit found some progress generated as a result in incentive's fruit and vegetable access, but no headway in identifying and addressing any supply issues in development planning or elucidating cost, quality and access issues for remote, rural and urban areas.[9]

In Sydney programs that are focusing on prevention have already been put in place that focus on prevention of diabetes and diabetes management. Community programs that are created (p.v.) to help families to work with food suppliers and transport services that can get healthier food to families that live the the 1,600 meter radius away from a grocery store (run-on).
