Address by Federal Minister for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Emergency Management Senator the Hon Murray Watt – 9th August 2022 @ the National Press Club of Australia
This event was co-ordinated by the National Rural Press Club and the National Press Club of Australia. Moderated by our President Lucy Barbour, the event provided the Minister the opportunity to share with agricultural industry leaders, trade partners, former ag industry ministers and the general business community the government’s vision for Australia’s rural, regional and national agricultural outlook. The event was a sell-out and a huge success. Participants heard about current major industry issues such as FMD, agricultural visas and floods along with live exports. Also highlighted was the launch of the government’s inaugural National Biosecurity Strategy.
