An underwhelming Federal Budget has been unveiled for Victorian farmers according to VFF President Brett Hosking.
“While investments into rural childcare facilities and the commitment to develop a National Food Security Strategy is welcome, overall it’s an underwhelming Budget for Victorian farmers.”
“In this election year, we must see major investments into fixing our crumbling rural road network and ensuring there’s adequate resources to manage the renewable energy transition,” Mr Hosking said.
