Barnaby Joyce appointed Federal Minister for Agriculture for AUSVEG
“Given his background in rural politics, Mr. Joyce will be well versed on the importance of horticulture to our nation. The vegetable industry is worth over three billion dollars, and is growing in potential in terms of its economic contribution to the economy. Horticulture is a backbone for many rural and regional communities as well a significant employer,” said Mr Mulcahy. “We look forward to working with Mr Joyce in addressing the challenges facing the horticulture sector."
