    Climate Impact and Adaptation Series Australian Stockman Hall of Fame, Longreach, Queensland Courtesy of Tourism Queensland Impacts and adaptation strategies for a variable and changing climate in the CENTRAL WEST QUEENSLAND REGION This summary describes the likely impacts of a variable and changing climate on the major primary industries of the Central West Queensland (CWQ) region, most notably for grazing, and the potential adaptation strategies which can be implemented to minimise climate risks. Climate Impact and Adaptation Series Major Primary Industries Grazing on native pastures is the major primary industry in the region. However, the CWQ region has significant growth potential in existing and new industries such as clean energy (e.g. geothermal energy, solar voltaic and solar thermal production), carbon farming, organic agriculture, agribusiness, ecotourism and cultural tourism and mining industries. The gross value production (GVP) in 2014-15 of agricultural commodities in the Desert Courtesy of Tourism Queensland Channels region was $672 M or 5.6% of the state total GVP for agricultural commodities ($11.9 B, ABS 2016a). Regional Profile The Central West Queensland (CWQ) region covers a large land-based area of 509,933 km2. The major centres in CWQ include Longreach, Barcaldine, Blackall and Winton. The climate in this region is classified as semi-arid or arid, with long hot summers and mild to cold winters. At Longreach, the average annual minimum and maximum temperatures are 15.5°C and 31.2°C, and at Birdsville they are 15.7°C and 30.4°C respectively. The rainfall is low and highly variable from year-to-year with an average historical annual rainfall of 430 mm in Longreach (1893-2015) and 166 mm in Birdsville (1892-2015).
