Victorian wheat walkout looms in Melbourne talks
Victorian delegates to the Australian Wheatgrowers Federation meeting in Melbourne threaten a walkout over quotas. State officials say a cut of up to 50 per cent is possible, but a less than 30 per cent reduction is preferred. Last season Victoria’s quota stood at 65 million bushels. Stated by Victorian Farmers Union leaders and grains division head Mr P Meehan, the plan focuses on protecting small growers with quotas up to 5 000 bushels while allowing larger quota holders to bear larger reductions. Mr Meehan, a leading Victoria wheat grower, warns drastic cuts could ruin small share farmers.
