Queensland’s sugarcane growers have delivered the final word at the State Government’s Inquiry into Sugarcane Biofuels Opportunities in Queensland, with CANEGROWERS closing the inquiry’s final public hearing in Brisbane today.
CANEGROWERS, the peak body for Queensland's sugarcane industry, has launched a new suite of curriculum-aligned educational resources designed to inspire and educate the next generation about one of Australia’s most enduring and forward-thinking industries – sugarcane.
CANEGROWERS has welcomed the State and Federal governments' decision to increase disaster recovery funding for primary producers to $75,000, calling it a win for Queensland’s cane growers and the broader agricultural sector.
CANEGROWERS welcomes the Federal Government’s commitment to Feeding Australia, a national food security strategy that aligns with the long-standing calls from Australian farmers to strengthen our agricultural supply chains.
