Calls to report agricultural damage from rain

If you’ve had agricultural loss or damage from the rain event in Sunraysia earlier this month, Agriculture Victoria are asking you to please report it to your industry grower group.

Ag Victoria say they are working closely with industry groups to collect information to build an accurate picture of impacts to help inform recovery planning.
