About the episode
Bushfires are still burning out of control in Victoria’s north east. The area stretches from the Tallangatta Valley to Cudgewa in the east and as far south as Tom Groggin Station. You’ll hear from Mayor of the Towong Shire, Peter Tolsher. With water being our most precious resource, how do we maximise each megalitre of water for both agricultural production and nature conservation? What if we took a more integrated approach to water management? The weekly wool report and the EMI fell 24 cents to close at 1665, though it rose in US$ terms. The hot dry weather is taking a huge toll on wine grape growers, some of whom simply can't afford the soaring water prices and are abandoning vineyards. The news isn't good for Australia's wine exports, which fell further six per cent last year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
