I was recently very fortunate to be able visit a client's cattle property northwest of Biloela. It is a huge advantage to be able to get out and see how the client's business is conducted and the difficulties that have to be overcome, particularly given the lack of rain at that time. I had the chance to tour the property in a two seater Robinson helicopter and after the first few nail biting minutes very much enjoyed the chance to see the property from the air. I wish I could fly one of those into the City every morning and avoid the traffic! The impact of the drought on our primary producers is often forgotten by those in the city and flying in to Biloela it was clear to see how truly devastating and wide spread this drought has been. Fortunately some areas have now had rain but more is desperately needed before winter. Fingers crossed the dry weather does not continue and some more rain brings further relief to our farmers.
