The Albanese 政府 has committed to 段階ing out live sheep 輸出（する）s from Australia by sea, which another WA 農業者, Steven Bolt from Claypans Merino Stud, said was 原因（となる）ing '完全にする 産業 破壊'.

'Growers lose 信用／信任 and try to sell out of sheep, 原因（となる）ing an oversupply to the market and no space at the abattoir. 料金d costs are sky high and often there's 非，不，無 利用できる.'

連邦の 農業 大臣 Murray ワット 任命するd an 独立した・無所属 パネル盤 to 供給する advice about 'how and when' to 禁止（する） the 輸出（する）s which held 協議s 'at very short notice' with 農業者s last year.

The 段階 out does not 適用する to other livestock 輸出（する） 産業s, such as live cattle 輸出（する）s, nor does it 適用する to live sheep 輸出（する）s by 空気／公表する.

'I am also conscious that the wider Australian community is 利益／興味d in the 段階 out, 含むing those that want to see animal 福利事業 持続するd and 改善するd.

'Along with other 対策, such as creating a new 視察官-General of Animal 福利事業, the Albanese 政府 is 配達するing on our 選挙 かかわり合い to 強化する animal 福利事業 in Australia.'

'We need a supermarket regulator to 直す／買収する，八百長をする the disconnect between 農業者s and 消費者s,' another said.

Some even questioned whether there was a way to 削減（する） out the supermarkets and sell direct to the public.

'When the cost of living is so high is there not a way to have a 農業者s' co-op who could cheaply sell these 削減（する）s 直接／まっすぐに to the public?' asked one.

'People are looking to buy meat from 農業者s. Have a look into Farm to Fork and Our Cow. I hate the idea of wasting so many animals,' another said.
