Another day, another big funding announcement from the state government ahead of next week's Budget, with Wagga set to benefit from a $27 million investment into agricultural research and development in Southern NSW.

The money will help improve access to government services, pay for world-leading genome technology, pest insect and weed diagnostics, biosecurity emergency management, and upgrade DPI research facilities.

Wagga MP Daryl Maguire says it’s a clear message that the NSW Government understands the value of the Riverina’s contribution to food and fibre production.
