Emerging industries was the topic in this Senate Estimates attended by AgriFutures, an organisation set up by the Australian government to help fund research and development in our rural industries.

I’m pleased to see that AgriFutures is active in hemp research and investing in grants for trials, including one in the Northern Territory. I visited a successful hemp farm in northern Queensland earlier this year and was curious to know if AgriFutures had looked into trials in this part of Australia too.

Although AgriFutures claims its operations are free from political bias, they are tied into the United Nations sustainability goals. Levies paid to AgriFutures are also being spent on carbon farming for carbon trading, which is a contrived market.

Bug farming is another area that AgriFutures is promoting. It involves growing bugs in intensive urban facilities, which is not supporting the farmers in the regions. AgriFutures’ bias towards these policies is doing people out of their jobs. Taking regional jobs and shoving them close to the cities is political no matter how you characterise it.

One of the purposes of the UN Sustainable Development Goals is to allow the globalists to get control of agriculture and food, centralising people into urban landscapes. AgriFutures’ excitement about turning crickets into dog food is just another step towards that future.

    God bless you Senator Roberts! You have a great deal of courage and determination to even exist in this arena. Your integrity shines like a beacon of hope amongst a group of individuals who appear to be self serving, uniformed, dispassionate about why they are employed. It would have been almost entertaining if a person wasn’t acutely aware, these people don’t seem to even care about other human beings. It was farcical to watch the D.A.K. and passive aggressive responses meted out to you, leaving you with the challenge to do their actual jobs and providing them with facts and statistics – PROOF, they should have available work to obtain. Not one appeared to be capable of a direct answer!
