Pushback on WRL and VNI-West isn't about opposing new energy, it’s about protecting working farm businesses.

Carving massive transmission lines through prime agricultural land threatens long-term food production, farm safety, and local biosecurity.

Diesel isn't an optional expense for Victorian agriculture, it’s a non-negotiable primary input.

Every time fuel prices spike or supply chains during critical seasonal windows like sowing or harvest, farm viability takes a hit, and supermarket prices follow.

While temporary emergency measures offer short-term breathing room, regional producers can’t rely on quick fixes. We need long term energy policy, expanded on-farm fuel storage, and genuine protection against global market volatility to safeguard Australia’s food security.
