Five Southern NSW councils have joined forces to host a Southern NSW Drought Summit, creating a vital opportunity for farmers, industry leaders, local governments, and policymakers to come together in response to worsening drought conditions across the region.



The summit will take place online via Zoom at 12md on Monday 4 August, and is a collaborative initiative of Greater Hume, Snowy Valleys, Wagga Wagga City, Cootamundra-Gundagai, and Yass Valley Councils.

The summit will feature direct contributions from producers and regional leaders, alongside invited NSW Government and Shadow Ministers with portfolios in agriculture, water, emergency services, and regional development.



Key objectives of the summit include:

• Communicating the real-time impacts of the drought on livestock production, infrastructure, and community wellbeing;

• Challenging current policy settings, including calls to recognise drought as a natural disaster;

• Advocating for urgent measures such as freight subsidies, LLS rate relief, and a review of the Future Drought Fund;

• Launching a Regional Drought Taskforce to maintain momentum and coordinate future advocacy.



The event is an invitation to, producers, councillors, MPs, industry representatives, and peak bodies who are encouraged to register their interest in advance of the Summit via:

Talk about riding in style! This adorable old lady came for a visit this afternoon with her owner Doug. While she may not have been overly excited about her visit to the clinic, she sure looked comfortable perched up with Doug in her winter woolies!

Horses of all ages from about 2yo should have annual maintenance dental examinations and floats to prevent sharp enamel points from forming and causing pain and trauma to the soft tissues of the mouth.
Good dental health is even more important in current conditions, allowing your horse to get the most out of hay and other supplementary feeds, keeping them in good condition through winter and beyond.
Don't wait until your horse is geriatric! Maintaining good dental health from a young age will give them an advantage as they get older.
Some signs your horse may need a dental:
Quidding, dropping feed, weight loss, head tossing under saddle, slow eating.
Discounts are available for multiple bookings; get your neighbours together and we can organise a dental party!
Call us today for more information!
