Stay at home orders have been issued for anyone who has travelled to the Armidale region since 31st of July and asked to get tested if feeling unwell. We as a community need to do the utmost we can to keep COVID out of our district, but it doesn’t mean we shut our doors. Life does go on and people need to work to make a living, not just our essential services. We all need to be mindful about entering other communities, ensure you’re using the QR codes wherever you go and try our best to minimise contact with people who are travelling through, or outside the region for work. I don’t know everyone in our community but there seems to be a lot of faces walking the streets that I have never seen before! Our livestock markets amid the snap lockdowns remain firm while ever the processors continue to operate. The issues we faced in 2020 were when COVID spread through multiple southern processing plants and they were forced to shut their doors for extended periods of time, thus affecting the markets. Touch wood, all the plants are still currently operating; obviously their strict workplace procedures are working. I attended an Inverell store sale last week and you could say I was blown away with what people were paying for light, secondary quality cattle. It was like there was no other cattle in Australia! Yes, I understand producers need mouths in the paddock to give themselves an opportunity to make some money, but these cattle will take a very SILAGE long time to make a return on investment and they were the breed of cattle that have the highest market price fluctuations. Quality Angus AT WALCHA heifers are still very hard to come by with 275kg EU Angus heifers making 820c/kg, a whopping $2260, while their heavier sisters, 319kg topped at $2510 on Auction plus last Friday. Prices for feeder and kill cattle continue to rise with all feeder cattle now $5/kg and better, while the grass fed kill market is now paying up to 830c/kg dressed weight. Over Bull sales continue their strong selling season with Yalgoo bull sale achieving 100% clearance to a top of $24,000 and average $13,528. Huge congratulations to the Nivison family at Yalgoo genetics on a very successful sale.

The Hon Gladys Berejiklian MP Premier Parliament House SYDNEY NSW 2000 Dear Premier, Report – NSW Bushfire Inquiry In January 2020 you announced the establishment of the NSW Bushfire Inquiry, noting it was to be completed by 31 July 2020. We now submit the final report of that Inquiry. The 2019-20 bush fires were some of the worst in the world and in recorded history. The Inquiry has worked to understand what happened during the 2019-20 bush fire season and how it was different to seasons that have come before. It makes 76 recommendations for future improvements to how NSW plans and prepares for, and responds to, bush fires. Some of these recommendations are for immediate action; others for actions that need to start now but will take some time to complete. Noting the breadth of the Inquiry’s Terms of Reference, the recommendations range from improvements to operational systems and processes through to significant research and strategic policy frameworks that require further development and consultation with key stakeholders. In presenting this final report we wish to acknowledge the assistance of many people – those who took the time to write submissions or talk to the Inquiry; the NSW fire agencies; colleagues from government departments in NSW and other jurisdictions; colleagues in industry, research organisations, and professional associations; and the Secretariat and Advisors to the Inquiry drawn from several government departments who worked hard to help us make sense of a complex matter.
