TIERNEY (Western Victoria – Minister for Training and Skills, Minister for Higher Education, Minister for Agriculture) (09:57): On another matter, I also had the opportunity to visit Banemore, a property run by progressive farmers Jonathan Jenkin and Jo Vigliaturo. This second-generation farming venture in Herefords and sheep is in many ways an exemplar in taking on new agricultural technologies, quality assurance programs and of course biosecurity practices. Jonathan and Jo have also worked with Agriculture Victoria to assess their on-farm greenhouse gas emissions and follow up with an action plan to reduce emissions. I would like to congratulate everyone on their unique contributions to the community of Western Victoria.
