It has an estimated population of 113,824 people at June 2015,[1] and is the largest region in New South Wales with an area of {{convert|198561|km2}},[1] approximately 25% of the state. The major localities are Dubbo, Cobar and Mudgee.[2] The Orana region encompasses twelve local government areas which are the Dubbo Regional Council, Mid-Western Regional Council and the Shires of Bogan, Bourke, Brewarrina, Cobar, Coonamble, Gilgandra, Narromine, Walgett, Warren and Warrumbungle.[2][3][4] This region corresponds approximately with the Australian Bureau of Statistics North Western Statistical Division. EtymologyThe term 'Orana' is said to mean "welcome" in an Aboriginal language, perhaps that of the local Wiradjuri group,[5] but this is contested. Orana was popularised as an Australian Aboriginal word in the carol Orana to Christmas Day, released in 1948, though its true origins are obscure. Linguist David Nash suggests that Orana's true origin may be a Polynesian language, noting that Kia orāna is a common greeting on Rarotonga, the largest of the Cook Islands.[6] EconomyAgriculture is the predominant industry in the Orana region, with 86% of the area under agricultural land use.[7] This land makes up 27% of the total agricultural land in New South Wales.[7] The output equals approximately {{AUD}}658 million or 11.7% of the state's agricultural production.[7] Agriculture industry jobs provide over 20 percent of the employment in the region.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=3218.0 – Regional Population Growth, Australia, 2014-15: Population Estimates by Local Government Area (ASGS 2015), 2005 to 2015 |url=http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/DetailsPage/3218.02014-15?OpenDocument|website=Australian Bureau of Statistics|publisher=Australian Bureau of Statistics|date=30 March 2016|accessdate=8 November 2016}} Estimated resident population, 30 June 2015. {{Regions of New South Wales |state=autocollapse}}{{coord missing|New South Wales}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title=Orana|url=http://www.business.nsw.gov.au/invest-in-nsw/regional-nsw/nsw-regions/orana|work=NSW Regions|publisher=NSW Department of Trade & Investment, Regional Infrastructure & Services|accessdate=26 August 2011|date=19 July 2011}} 3. ^Orana Region Business Enterprise Centre Dubbo City Online website, accessed 11 November 2006 4. ^Map of LGAs department of local government website, accessed 11 November 2006.
