Buffel Battle: The environmental impact of buffel grass
ABC Rural News provides authoritative coverage of the business and politics of Australian farming, livestock, forestry, agriculture and primary production
"Buffel grass is a life source for Australia's cattle industry".
When Australia's cattle industry = 80% exports, which includes over 50,000 McDonalds in 190 nations, maybe it's time to acknowledge the whole system is killing people + planet?
1st up, we've got Steve Hayes, Grazier.

@adriantomlinson.bsky.social so when anyone buys and sells cattle in Australia, they're funding lobbying groups by default.
The MLA is funded by transaction levies:

Which means that you're looking at one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the world. Why?

Basically what we're looking here is the octopus tentacles of Meat & Livestock Australia, which they all roll into to do the same kind of right wing lobbying.

#BuffelGrass #Australia @adriantomlinson.bsky.social When it comes to lobbying + BS, Australia's finest:
"For more than a century, pastoral families have worked across vast rangelands, shaping landscapes. They achieved it by developing it with purpose, & the opportunity to build on that legacy has never been greater."

BIODIVERSITY IS BETTER ON BEEF » Territory Q
For more than a century, pastoral families have worked across vast rangelands, shaping landscapes that remain some of the most intact in Australia. They did not achieve this by locking the country…
Territory Q@adriantomlinson.bsky.social Australia's largest pastoral holding/family is Hancock aka Gina Rinehart, and this is her families legacy. The worst contaminated site in the Southern Hemisphere. That's just for her father's mining. Plenty more where that came from.
