Support Framers on the Tick Line

Jun 11, 2024

The agriculture farmers in our electorate have lost all confidence in the state governments. The tick line is a clear instance of the government placing its desires above the interests of the community. Keep ticks, fire ants, and noxious weeds under control cannot fall back on to the already over-burdened farmer. DPI has lost funding and responsibility for the management of ticks in our region. When did centralisation of such an important function make sense to anyone but the bureaucrats? I will seek funding for a community-led solution to maintain a tick-free environment and safeguard the well-being of livestock.
