Regulation is a pain- ironic after cane toads, rabbits ect are already here. But necessary after you look at damage done.
Best if there is not so much a camp of - organic vs non organic. I dont want to see "Greenies" in politics as they seem to waste a lot of money and get bugger all done. Also not good to see big Chem and Agro business in politics either as they have their own agenda.
I do like to see more of the community take an interest in food production - a results based interest with a long term and a medium term view. Farmers understand the economics of broad scale food production while the little guys are getting really good at "stacking" systems and cycling water and nutrients ect.
Not sure how much respectful dialog is going on, I imagine quite a lot given the seriousness of the subject.
If Australia is heavily regulated as you say, then perhaps the breakthroughs will be coming from elsewhere..
