Here's what an average afternoon on a live-export vessel looks like from a recent voyage. Note how the animals huddle together, just as they would in a paddock. 🐑💤

Yep.

Words of an academic that ignores science...

Al Kuwait was exempted from the moratorium in 2020 due to covid issues.

The mortality rate was 0.08%. Lower than would be expected in paddocks proving additional mitigation methods work. Activists were devastated.

Well #QandA forgot regional Australia once again.

Despite the growing mountain of issues across his portfolio, there was not a single agriculture question for the Minister for Agriculture.

Missed opportunity Patricia Karvelas

Anytime you want to post pictures of your parents utopian farming enterprise please feel free. We would all love to see what farming decision perfection and 12 month accurate weather forecasting looks like.

Oh it must be bliss in that fantasy land!

#keepthesheep

Yeah talk about inconsistency!!

🚨There have be lots of surveys about the the dry season in WA but this one is OFFICIAL 👇 WA sheep producers: please take 5-10 mins to provide anonymous data for the Dry Season Taskforce. Closes on 1 May. Please re-post as we need lots of responses.

What until this bloke hears about what happens if cricket game gets to the end of 5 days.

He is going to be fuming.

Activists: Sheep don't get any room on live export boats! They should be free to spread out in a paddock!!

The live sheep trade is an important market for WA sheep farmers and today’s live export industry is one to be proud of. Show your support to WA farmers & send the message that we want to #keepthesheep

Well you probably should have asked in January when pre-budget submissions were open, aye?

The budget isn't getting changed a month out. Another pointless stunt from this group.

Australia has always produced more food that we can use. We should be shipping our product all over the world.

This is a tragic waste.

A new billboard supporting the live export trade has garnered “overwhelmingly positive” reviews from travellers on the Forrest Highway, according to WA Senator Slade Brockman. Via oliviaford 🐑

And yet, this organisation did not include anything sheep phase out related in their pre-budget submission in January.

Not a single word on sheep phase out, but now that they are losing the fight it's a priority.

Keep it up agriculture!

Just a friendly reminder this man also founded Animals Australia.

The same Animals Australia that lecture farmers on animals welfare.

I guess if you can't win on policy, you attack an MPs religious affiliation.

Disgraceful.

I reckon if this isn’t abandoned by the next federal election (due within a year) that Swan, Hasluck, Pearce and Tangney all flip to the Coalition. So many Perth people have enjoyed the South West as kids or growing up as teenagers. Few would accept wind turbines in Geographe…

I highly recommend calling the number for the agent.

What does Labor mean when it says it wants to 'restart manufacturing'?

Make government subsidised rather than remove red tape for the private sector.

Labor trying to increase WA sheep processing to offset the Live Sheep Ban policy will be a disaster.

#keepthesheep

That was on par with sirengate.

A true AFL clusterfuck.
