Western Australian crop grower and cattle and sheep farmer Simon Wallwork has called for farmers to get priority when it comes to access to fuel and fertiliser supplies. With farmers struggling to cope with the high cost of fuel and fertiliser as a result of the Middle East conflict, which has also restricted supplies of fuel and fertiliser, Wallwork also says an increase to the on-farm diesel tax rebate or similar support was needed, as well as well as help to pay for increased fertiliser costs. He also wants CGT concessions that apply when farms are transferred from one generation to the next to be retained, as well as protection for family trusts
