AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH PROJECT — ORD VALLEY
253. Hon ROBIN CHAPPLE to the Minister for Agriculture and
Food:
I refer to the article in The Kimberley Echo on
Friday, 27 October 2017, titled ''Crop research project aims
to grow farm profit''.
(1) In dollar
value, what was the total amount of funding the state government has
contributed to the agricultural research project that will investigate cropping
systems for growing cotton, grain and forage in the Ord Valley?
(2) Will the
minister table the scope of that research?
(3) What are
the reporting requirements?
(4) When is
the first report due?
(5) Will the
minister table the reports?
(6) How much
funding has been provided to investigate bush foods, such as gubinge, which is
recognised as a positive industry for traditional owners in the Kimberley?

I need to advise the member that I have not seen that
question. There is not a copy of that question or answer in my file, and indeed
I have not seen it. It has not been presented to me today. I will be more than
happy for the member to ask it again tomorrow.
Hon Robin Chapple : It is question C263.
Hon ALANNAH MacTIERNAN : I apologise; I have not seen
it, and it is not here.
