Queensland’s move to kick–start a biofuels industry is a major step towards unlocking the full potential of the state’s sugarcane industry, CANEGROWERS CEO Dan Galligan says.
CANEGROWERS has welcomed today’s announcement by the Crisafulli Government of a Parliamentary Inquiry into the potential of sugarcane-based bioenergy, calling it a vital step towards building a modern, diversified sugarcane industry in Queensland.
CANEGROWERS has welcomed the renewed momentum in Australia-EU free trade negotiations, urging both sides to work towards a deal that delivers meaningful outcomes for Australian agriculture.

A long-running push by CANEGROWERS for disaster funding reform has delivered another major win for Queensland cane farmers, with the State and Federal governments agreeing to broaden the definition of ‘primary producer’ under disaster assistance rules.
Queensland’s sugarcane growers have backed Owen Menkens to lead the industry through a pivotal period, re-electing the Burdekin grower for another three-year term as Chairman of CANEGROWERS Queensland.
