Realism urged in migrant labour to boost food production
Australia’s Minister for Agriculture, Hon. F. H. Graham, urged reviewing immigration to balance migrant labour between primary and secondary industries. He proposed sending rural migrants overseas to aid primary industries, citing dairying with British and Dutch-Danish migrants to expand food production and meet rising domestic demand for export, especially to Great Britain.

Crop Report For Manning Hastings And Macleay Rivers
The District Agronomist J B Noonan notes July brought warm sunny days after a cold snap with snow on higher crests. Rainfall was light, drying waterlogged pastures, soils hardened by wind, but light showers July 31 were welcomed. Paspalum, carpet grass and native pastures were dormant. Kikuyu grew little but offered rough grazing where autumn growth was abundant. White clover suffered from severe fronts, but may rebound with upcoming Heht rain. drought-tolerant Bah orn pastures did well. Farmers favor light rains now and longer rainfall toward late August to ensure a good spring and avoid delaying growth.

Pasture liming and harvest update in July season
Liming of pastures continued but wet spells delayed operations and lime supplies remained scarce. Maize harvest largely complete. grain quality satisfactory with low weevil infestation. Surplus grain bought at up to 19 shillings per bushel for yellow and 19 shillings sixpence for white. Seed crops yielded well with Standfast 800 bushels, Victory 600, Ensign 450. hybrid seed predominates. seed scarcity expected if next season is good. Fodder crops mostly fed to stock. sorghum and turnip feeding common. Oats gave good growth though acreage below normal with crown rust present. Frosts affected vegetables, especially peas. beans cucumbers sowings made late July aided by late July heat. Vegetables in Port Macquarie hit by record frosts after wet June.
