Jane Doe,
Member for
Rockhampton
Supporting our local
landholders
I grew up on a cattle property north-west of
Rockhampton with firm knowledge on the
agricultural industry
I attended boarding school in Rockhampton
and have lived in the area ever since, giving
me a firm grasp on the issues in the
community
The Fitzroy Food Bowl
 The government is focused on making
agriculture one of the pillars of the
economy
 The Fitzroy Food Bowl has been identified
as prime agricultural land in close
proximity to ports needed for export
markets
 Developing the food bowl would
improve the economy and create jobs as
the mining boom slows
 Without mining the economy is becoming
vulnerable
 Agriculture could pick up where mining
left
 The downturn in mining is affecting other
industries in Rockhampton, making work
harder to find
 Youth unemployment is 11.4% in
Rockhampton
 We need another boost in the economy
to reverse this figure
For the future of Rockhampton
 The Fitzroy Food Bowl would have positive
effects for both Rockhampton and the
state as a whole.
 Investing in agriculture will lead to a
stronger economy in the future
