Natural Sequence Farming

Yesterday, Peter rang the Parliamentary Office of the PM asking to speak with the PM's COS, David Epstein.

"Who's calling? From where? Natural Sequence Farming? Peter Andrews? No, sorry we've never heard of it?"

After 30 years of trying to alert the politicans of the benefits of NSF....the real decisions makers..ie the minders and the bureaucrats, like Sir Humphrey..... make sure their political masters are continually keep in the dark.

What hope have we got???

As an outside observer, I have observed and seen how the the MDBS can be re-instated as a fully functioning system...this is not theory but fact. And a large number of scientists have confirmed the above statement based on demonstration sites that show how the natural processes and components in this landscape work and confirm that the MDB can be fixed understanding of the way the Basin used to work naturally.

Wouldn't you think that if someone was claiming to have SOLUTIONS to one of our biggest environmental challenges that Rudd, Wong and the others down there in Canberra would at least want to see and know what the solutions were!!!

This must drive you crazy. To have a sensible solution that works as beautifully as NSF. I have just written to Australia Wide, 7.30 report, Australian Story, ABC Investigations, Lateline, Stateline and Landline suggesting to all that they should do a story (or follow Up). This nonsense of turning their backs has got to stop because Australia will be a dried up laughing stock if politicians do not pay attention.

Good on you Shirley.

Most times when I ask a pollie a question either through email or letter I generally mention Peter and his book, unfortunitly their staff filters most of the mail they recieve and much of it is file in the small round file at the end o the desk. When you do get an answer it is in pollie and written by staffers.
I can relate to the frustration well

I heard a news report that Mr David Epstein has taken up a new job with Qantas. Maybe his replacement is worth a try.

As Peter has in the past and will do in the future, the only way NSF will get its credit is by the people that do not belive in his ways is asking him to prove each and every point.
