When they closed the other plants (I think it was in the 80's)
The government paid the growers a subsidy for each tree they pulled out
Thousands of trees littered the ground until they were dry to burn in piles of bonfires
That was a devastating thing.
The agenda here appears to be to force a repeat of that devastation until most of our fruit trees in the GV are gone forever
You only need to look in the supermarket to see that the local canned fruit prices are being jacked up while the imported supermarket owned brand is sold at dumping prices
Never mind. One day you can take your children/grand children through the area and tell once there were fruit trees all around here.
