La Grange Agriculture Opportunities PLANNING the FUTURE for AGRICULTURE in the LA GRANGE REGION , WEST KIMBERLEY Issue 9 January/Feb 2015 from the Editor
La Grange Agriculture Opportunities PLANNING THE FUTURE FOR AGRICULTURE IN THE LA GRANGE REGION , WEST KIMBERLEY Issue 9 January/Feb 2015 From the Editor Inside this issue: From the editor 1 Project Seminar 2 Regional vision 3 January came and went before the chance to wish everyone Happy New Year so it’s Project Manager 4 update February well wishes from the team here in Broome. We hope 2015 is everything you hope for and that we get to work alongside you again this year. Guess the first rain 4 for the Wet winner I will be hitting the road in the next weeks as many return from a well earned break and I’m looking forward to catching up with the landholders of La Grange. The project end date of June 2016 is getting close and as we enter the last 17 months we look forward to finalizing the resource assessment and other investigations and support tools, and showcasing these at the 2015 regional workshop. The DAFWA project team presented a seminar update at the end of last year to Department and Industry people in Perth and the packed room indicated a keenness to hear what the project has been doing and where we are heading from here. facebook.com/dafwalagrange Finalising the regional vision for future agriculture development in La Grange is a high priority for this last year. A vision statement will be developed that the project and landholders can use to clearly outline what the residents of La Grange want. If you haven’t had a chance to have your say as a landholder, make sure you contact me. -
