Hardly news...Today Tonight & A Current Affair have been reporting stories such as these for over a year..I even think Sixty Minutes might have done a story about foriegn take overs of Australian farms with the clear blessing of the government. Rather than sell Cubbie Farm they should have scrapped it..it is a stupid idea to grown cotton (a water hungry crop) in a country where water is becoming scarce. This country needs to support farming and farmers need to be smarter about what they grow. Shame governments (Liberal & Labour) only think short term to the next election rather than plan for this countries future.
