Requests for Assistance

DPI Fisheries, NSW Food Authority, NSW Farmers Association and myself are working together to see what assistance the oyster industry may require with the current fires impacting NSW.

If you are aware of any urgent needs of farmers in your area please get in touch. If you are aware of damage and loss of infrastructure it would be appreciated if you could let us know.

Advice about available assistance is being prepared and will be available in the coming days. Stay safe.
