Living with drought - who can help and how

Watch this one-minute animation to learn about the range of people and organisations who can provide advice and support as conditions dry.

It’s one of a series of Australian Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry resources available at bit.ly/3JCjYhl to help farmers prepare for, manage and recover from #drought.

Drought is a shared responsibility, and everyone has a role to play.

•    Banks can assist with things like farm management deposit accounts and lending options.
•    Agronomists can help boost production, and accountants can advise on ways to diversify income or limit
     losses.
•    State and federal governments can also help, with some offering farm business planning, research and
     climate tools, and different kinds of deductions or rebates. Farmers may also be eligible for income support,
     loans, financial counselling and mental health services.
•    Farm industry groups can share what other farmers are doing and connect them to their communities
     through local organisations.
