FARMERS in Western Victoria can look forward to a smoother journey from their farm gate to market thanks to a $20 million State Government investment. Member for Western Victoria Gayle Tierney welcomed the funding which is being delivered through the AgriLinks Upgrade Program to improve Victorian’s vital network of local roads in the region. “Producers, processors and other agri-food supply chain businesses will beneﬁ t from being better connected to markets and communities with reduced travel times,” she said. “Improvements to the roads and infrastructure used by farmers and producers will help them grow their businesses as they will be able to reach more customers more quickly.” The funding will be used to undertake important local road infrastructure upgrades which will increase agriculture productivity and reduce travel times, better connecting country roads to major transport routes and connecting people in rural, regional and peri- urban areas to local markets and jobs. Corangamite Shire Council and Moyne Shire Council were among 38 rural, regional and peri-urban councils across the state to receive AgriLinks funding. Moyne Shire Council received $620,000 to upgrade Rollos Road and Childers Cove Road. Corangamite Shire Council received $325,000 for the rehabilitation of Terang Framlingham Road, which is nearing completion. The program complements funding provided through the previous Local Roads to Market Program, which supported 78 local projects along Victoria’s rural and regional agricultural freight routes, delivering productivity and safety improvements for farmers and businesses. The AgriLinks Upgrade Program is part of the State Government’s $2.7 billion Building Works package designed to get thousands of Victorians back to work on crucial infrastructure projects around Victoria. AgriLinks is also another demonstration of the government’s commitment to deliver on its new agriculture strategy. The Agrilinks program aims to help build a Victorian agriculture sector which is strong, innovative and sustainable by supporting producers to be more proﬁ table and ensuring products can be delivered to markets more often. A full list of councils awarded funding AGED 50 through the AgriLinks Upgrade Program can be found at agriculture.vic.gov.au/support-and- resources/.

THE latest COVID lockdown has certainly put a spanner in the works especially when it came to wetting a line over the weekend. However, our health comes fi rst and foremost and being stuck at home can bring opportunity such as fi nding plenty of time to upgrade your fi shing equipment. Replacing hooks on lures, re-spooling new line onto reels as well as giving them a good wash in soapy water and then a grease will certainly extend their longevity and prevent sticking. Fishing rods also will benefi t from a good wipe down, lubricating the reel seat and maybe a new coat of lacquer. Plenty can be done to boats besides a good wash down inside and out. Again get the can of lubricant spray out and give all working metal parts a good spray including the winch, jockey wheel and your wheel nuts. In fact, get the spanner out and loosen and then re-tighten all wheel nuts to prevent seizure which can be a real pain when a fl at tyre occurs when on the road. Examine the pull cord on the outboard motor for signs of fraying. Make a spare pull cord that can be wrapped around the fl y wheel to start the motor if the main cord ever gives out. This can easily be the difference between getting back to the boat ramp or being stuck on the water on a given day. There’s a plethora of things to maintain as an angler and keeping right on top of it means less On hold: Local football and netball seasons are currently paused after down time and more fi shing time.
