| Feedback sought on dingo conservation and management |
|
|
Farmers, Traditional Owners and environmental groups across the state are being called upon to help shape the review of dingo conservation and wild dog management in Victoria.
Minister for Agriculture Ros Spence and Minister for Environment Steve Dimopoulos recently announced face-to-face and online consultation as part of the review.
Consultation will take place in early September and include five in-person sessions for farmers across regional Victoria and one online. These sessions will build on previous surveys and consultation and to appropriately balance the protection of livestock and the conservation of dingoes.
This targeted consultation will seek feedback on the economic and social impacts of the dingo unprotection order.
This consultation will build on the government’s understanding of the different views about the current order. This has been informed by recent stakeholder engagement, correspondence and data collection including the livestock predation survey conducted
The Ministers for Environment and Agriculture will jointly consider this feedback, alongside the latest scientific research and data, in determining the future policy settings beyond 1 October 2024, when the current dingo unprotection order is due to expire.
Dingoes are listed as a threatened species under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 and are protected under the Wildlife Act 1975. The dingo unprotection order only permits control activities on specified private land and within a 3km buffer zone on public land in the east of Victoria.

| Avoid exposure losses following shearing |
|
|
Dr Jeff Cave, Agriculture Victoria Senior Veterinary Officer
A sheep’s fleece is a great insulator against the cold, so imagine the effect when it’s suddenly gone.
A freshly shorn sheep may experience a three-fold increase in heat loss, therefore highly prone to hypothermia.
Freshly shorn sheep are at greatest risk of cold stress in the first three days (or nights) after shearing, and remain at risk for up to two weeks, with mortalities seen in some mobs up to four weeks after shearing.
Although there is little wool growth, acclimatisation and considerable skin thickening occurs after shearing.
It is therefore important to monitor predicted weather conditions before putting shorn sheep into a paddock after shearing.
The impact of cold weather, particularly when combined with wet and windy conditions, can have severe impacts on sheep.
The effect of cold weather will depend on its duration, rainfall, wind speed and temperature.
The type of weather most likely to cause catastrophic sheep losses due to hypothermia is usually associated with the passage of a strong cold front or a rain-bearing depression.
Sheep grazier alerts are issued when a combination of rain, wind and low temperatures reaches a critical level.
If a sheep grazier alert has been received at the end of shearing, shed as many sheep as possible and provide hay for the duration. Once the bad weather has passed, move the sheep to a paddock with adequate shelter and continue to provide supplementary feed.
In areas prone to winter storms a 'cover comb' or 'snow comb' can be used when shearing.
Once cold, freshly shorn sheep may become extremely difficult to move so always put shorn sheep into a protected paddock with plenty of shelter from the cold. Off-shears paddocks should be small and well protected from cold winds by relatively impermeable shelter belts.
Extra feed should be provided to sheep for up to four weeks following shearing to meet their increased energy requirements.
Shearing a month before lambing encourages ewes to seek shelter and hence protection for their lambs. However, pre-lambing shearing must only be considered if ewes are in good condition and have free access to good feed and shelter. Heavily pregnant ewes should not be subject to the handling and feed deprivation that shearing involves.
For further information please contact your local veterinarian or Agriculture Victoria veterinary or animal health officer.

| Upcoming workshops to improve farm office tasks |
|
|
|
Agriculture Victoria invites Mallee and North Central farmers to attend workshops running from 10 to 13 September on efficient farm office management with Carmen Quade from AgriFocused.
Agriculture Victoria Land Management Extension Officer Darryl Pearl said farm office managers would discover multiple benefits from Mrs Quade’s workshops.
‘Farmers tend to be self-taught when it comes to office software and record keeping,’ Mr Pearl said.
‘These farm office management workshops are a great way to learn practical ways to improve office processes and software competency, as well as share experiences and insights with other farmers in the room.
‘It’s a truly collaborative learning environment for everyone to work on ways to work smarter.’
Mr Pearl said it’s a comprehensive day that accommodates for class needs and includes topics such as:
-
legal requirements for farm businesses
-
record keeping for livestock, grain and other commodities
-
paperless and hard copy options for all generations on the farm
-
reconciliation methods to prevent overpayment
-
data security for multiple users
-
optimal office working environments
-
helpful mobile and cloud-based apps.
Workshops run from 9 am to 3 pm at the following locations:
-
10 September, Lake Cullulleraine
-
11 September, Kerang
-
12 September, Inglewood
-
13 September, Sea Lake.

| Verdict upheld for Gippsland farmer guilty of animal cruelty |
|
|
Gippsland farmer Jeremy Rich has failed recently in his attempt to have his conviction and sentence overturned in the County Court of Victoria.
Mr Rich was appealing against his 2022 conviction on 16 charges, including one of aggravated cruelty, following the death of numerous sheep in his care.
In 2022, the Latrobe Valley Magistrates’ Court heard the charges related to a large outbreak of flystrike and gastrointestinal parasitism in a flock of more than 2,300 sheep at Mr Rich’s property between March and April 2020.
Agriculture Victoria officers attended the property in early March 2020 in response to a complaint concerning sick and dying sheep. Officers attended a further 9 separate occasions and issued several Notices to Comply.
Over this time numerous sheep with flystrike were observed, 3 were humanely euthanised by officers and 41 recently deceased sheep were recorded.
Agriculture Victoria Compliance Manager, Daniel Bode, said despite receiving numerous Notices to Comply, no action was taken by Mr Rich.
A significant number of sheep died and were either scavenged, partially eaten, removed or buried in a large pit.
Following this Contested Hearing in the Magistrates’ Court in 2022, Mr Rich was convicted and fined $50,000.00, plus costs of $4,005, and a 10-year disqualification order was imposed.
The matter was reheard on appeal in the County Court in 2024. Mr Rich was convicted on 13 charges, fined $50,000 and ordered to pay additional costs of $40,386 to the Department for the running of the appeal. The court also re-imposed the 10-year disqualification order.
Mr Bode said the weight of the 10-year disqualification order is substantial and will ensure that animals are protected from further pain and suffering.
‘It sends a very clear message that those who continually commit offences against animals should not have the privilege and opportunity to care for them in the future,’ Mr Bode said.
‘Apart from the obvious pain and suffering of the animals, animal welfare breaches can jeopardise Victoria’s reputation as a humane and responsible producer of food, which can, in turn, affect all producers.
‘This is a reminder to all livestock producers that animal cruelty will not be tolerated by the Victorian Government or our community.’
Anyone wishing to make a specific complaint regarding livestock welfare can contact Agriculture Victoria on 136 186 or aw.complaint@agriculture.vic.gov.au |
