GrainGrowers Pre-Budget Submissions

GrainGrowers has called on the Federal Government to prioritise nation-shaping investment in the upcoming budget, warning that Australia’s food system is increasingly exposed to high-impact risks that threaten long-term resilience.

The 2026–27 Pre-Budget Submission outlines the urgent need for targeted investment to strengthen domestic food security and support grain growers, regional communities, and the broader economy.

To address these challenges, GrainGrowers has recommended a suite of practical investments to safeguard agricultural land, secure industry access to inputs, strengthen supply chains, boost exports, capitalise on climate opportunities, support farmer mental health, and strengthen biosecurity.
