National Farmers’ Federation President David Jochinke has slammed the Albanese Labor government’s “avalanche of bad ideas” which are hurting the agriculture industry.
His remarks come as thousands of farmers rally in Canberra on Tuesday morning, protesting against what they call the government’s ‘anti-farming ideology’.
“We’re giving up our time to come to Canberra to make the message very loud and clear the government needs to start listening to agriculture,” he told Sky News Australia.
“We need to make sure we base policy on facts and things that will advance our industry not on activists and ideals.”
