Thank you, Mr Speaker. My question is to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources. Will the Deputy Prime Minister outline to the House how the Australian agriculture sector is driving growth in the economy? What does this mean for the horticulture sector, particularly for expanding businesses like Mountain Blue Farms in my electorate of Page? Is the Deputy Prime Minister aware of any threats to the sector and the thousands of hardworking regional Australians it employs?
