National Farmers Federation president, David Crombie, believes it would be better for farmers if they were “part of the solution” if an emissions trading scheme is introduced, not sitting on the outside of the scheme as some grains groups suggested in recent weeks.
Mr Crombie said farmers “would be up for all the costs” even if they weren’t part of a scheme, and being inside the trading system would enable some opportunity to counter cost-burdens like higher fuel, freight, fertilisers and electricity.
