Challenges for Farmers in Australia

Challenges for farmers

The task was to write a newspaper article to persuade community to support Aussie farmers. It is therefore, a persuasive text that uses facts and opinions based on those facts. 


Call out for Aussie farmers 

As Aussies, we should be proud of our land and resources. But how much do we really support farmers? Current challenges for Australian agriculture industry include climate, low soil fertility, weeds and pests, biological threats from illegal imports, droughts, water security, price volatility and currency fluctuations.

Climate change- climate change is the consequence of unchecked pollution. When carbon emissions caused by human activity enter the air they have dangerous effects on the environment, the economy, and our well-being. But just as humans cause it, we can halt its progress.

We need to support our Australian farmers so we can keep on going with the lives we are living. And have food and clothing for us. Without farmers, where would we get our food, clothes and everyday resources that we need to provide for our country? Our family would not be available to provide these things for us!
