NSW Farmers, in conjunction with the Department of Planning and Environment, will be hosting a forum in Dubbo to focus on community concerns surrounding large scale solar. The forums will give members and their guests an opportunity to raise their concerns and have their questions answered by government and industry representatives.

This is a particularly important chance to provide landholder and broader agricultural perspectives to government as they continue to develop their strategies for future energy generation and transmission.

The forum will start at 6:30pm and end at approximately 8:30pm with light refreshments to be provided upon conclusion.

Several branches have organised buses to drive members to and from this event in Wagga Wagga. Get in contact with your branch or Regional Service Manager to find out whether there is a bus organised for your area.
