Update: 2025-12-06
Description
Fire ants, a destructive pest, have been discovered in central Queensland, prompting authorities to trace their origin. Meanwhile, Australian farmers are planting more chickpeas due to a reduced tariff in India, their major market. The peanut industry receives a boost with Begas factories acquired by the Crumpton Group. A genetically modified purple tomato may soon grace Australian shelves, and the cattle industry prepares for potential US beef imports, but consumers may not notice significant changes.
