NSW children to learn about agriculture in new program | Sky News AustraliaAgriculture and farming will be incorporated into a new learning program for New South Wales children as part of a federally-backed initiative to teach them about the sector before the age of 12.\n\nNSW Farmers Federation President James Jackson told Sky News children across Australia “don’t really understand the food and fibre supply chains”.\n\n“Our kids don’t have that uncle on the farm anymore and they don’t go in the school holidays out to a farm so they don’t really understand where their food and fibre comes from.' \n\nHe said getting children out onto farms for hands on experience was more “problematic” now with occupation health and safety standards, but they wanted all NSW children to have an interactive experience in the industry at least twice before they were 12-years-old. \n\n“It is an experimental program, there has been some work done by the Primary Industry Foundation of Australia to actually get more mentions of agriculture in the curriculum, but there is nothing like seeing and doing it,” Mr Jackson said. \n\n Maybe mattjcan can join in as well. He has no idea about farming (he loves coal).

Coalition ignored Labor 'concerns' over Port Darwin lease in 2015 | Sky News AustraliaLabor Senator Penny Wong says the Labor Party “raised concerns” over the 99-year Port Darwin lease when it was first awarded by the Northern Territory government to Chinese company Landbridge.\n\nThe Opposition is demanding an explanation over the Chinese ownership of the critical Port of Darwin which was signed over under Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull in 2015.\n\nDefence analysists have recently become increasingly concerned about the $500 million deal - triggering a review on national security grounds by the Department of Defence.\n\nMs Wong said, “the government might have announced a review now, but in fact voted against Labor amendments in the Senate which called on the government to in fact do this review”.\n\n“There is a legitimate question about whether this lease was in the national interest,” she told Sky News.\n\n“At the time we raised concerns. We also, as the Opposition, pressed for critical infrastructure to have proper arrangements, proper checks and balances on foreign ownership.”\n SenatorWong LestWeForget SenatorWong ScottMorrisonMP SenatorWong So Penny, you are 100% behind the cancellation of the belts and roads deal in Vic and won’t object to the Port of Darwin deal being reviewed and potentially cancelled along with the port of Newcastle?
