27/07/2022 Last night was a pivotal moment in my fight toward bringing about lasting and meaningful change. If you didn't get the chance to see my First Speech here it is. I dedicate it to each and every Australian. https://www.facebook.com/JacintaNPrice

In this special hour long episode of The Weekly Wrap you will hear from four industry exports, including Agriculture minister Murray Watt, on Foot & Mouth Disease (FMD), Australia's response and what would happen if it came to Australia.

This video provides a precis of the Australian Farm Biodiversity Certification Scheme Phase 1 Report delivered to the National Farmers' Federation in July 2020. During the consultation for this report, farmers identified the complexity, cost and difficulty of assessing and participating in multiple programs, as barriers to participating in current stewardship programs, including market-based initiatives. The report found that best results were likely to come from an overarching framework that connected and verified current and emerging programs and provided farmers with choice. This framework will provide a pathway to assuring market access, demonstrating robustness of verification and measurement tools, and supporting the further diversification of economic opportunities for farmers. The NFF is now focussed on developing a framework or meta-standard for Australian agriculture sustainability as part of the Australian Government's $34 million Agricultural Stewardship package.
