not to sound obnoxious but for any reason in particular?
There are a few domestic organic products with imported ingredients. I can't really see how this could be different.

Nswbasalt..... Sounds like the same old story in your neck of the woods.
Too much regulation. Many states in the USA require, strick lab testing of fertilizers & soil amendments.

The owner of BMO and I were chatting one night, a few months ago. He said just dealing with the Dept of Agriculture here in the US, was a total headache. They require him to submit test results of their products, to three different departments within the DoA, and to a few states (which have their on regulations - which are even tougher) on varying schedules. If he fails to do it just right, there are potentially big fines, and added troubles. It seems the US Government tries to regulate everything.
.
Just another way government keeps Small Business out of the Game. Most small business either can't afford all the lab testing or just get tired of the hassles associated with it and give up. So, don't be too hard on them for not shipping to your country. I'm sure that's probably a whole set of other problems, costs and regulations when dealing with other countries.

Now, since you can't get SPT, see if you can order some Plant Sucess or Sub-Culture from a hydro store. Both of them have the myco fungi and will help your plants grow. Since, both are made by Big Fert Companies, maybe they've paid off the right people, oh excuse me, maybe they meet the requirements for import into Oz.

Keep it Real.....Organic....

not only did they go out of their way to provide me with an A+ product, they also upped it to an XL size for the same price.
