Hiya Hinchinbrook Shire, I would like to address the tragedy that many of us woke up to on the 15th, of the mass shooting that happened at Bondi Beach in Sydney. An antisemitic massacre that directly targeted the Australian Jewish community, who were celebrating the beginning of Hanukkah. Local authorities declared it a terrorist attack, and it is now the second-deadliest mass shooting in Australian history. Though it happened miles from here, many locals, including myself, are holding the victims in our hearts, the youngest of whom was 10 years old, and mourning alongside those families affected, despite the distance. Robert Lang from the Cardwell RSL let me know that, "The National Flag flies at Half Mast at the Cardwell Cenotaph today in honour of the innocent victims of the horrendous attack by religious fanatics at Bondi Beach on the 14th of December 2025." It is truly tragic, Australia is a country built on community and mateship, that 'Australian melting pot'. In times like these, I hope everyone can be there for a friend or family member who may be hurting from this news. I will sign off with this message written by MP for Hinchinbrook Wayde Chiesa, "My heart breaks for those that have lost their lives and those who are injured, in this senseless attack. My thoughts and prayers are with their families and friends, our brave first responders and the entire community." [SIGNATURE]

Over the past seven weeks, Hinchinbrook Shire Council hosted 10 Community Shed Meetings across the region, from Halifax to Mount Fox and Forrest Beach to Ingham. These sessions provided residents with practical information and resources to prepare for disasters, strengthen response capabilities, and build resilience in homes, neighbourhoods, and communities. Mayor Ramon Jayo said disasters can strike at any time, and resilience starts with knowledge and planning. “By knowing your risk, making a plan and packing a kit, preparation is critical,” Mayor Jayo said. “Preparing by coming together, sharing ideas, and learning what steps to take, we make Hinchinbrook stronger and safer for everyone. Thank you for taking the time to be part of these important conversations.” It was also an opportunity for communities to discuss with the Mayor, Councillors and Council Executive local concerns. From roads, children’s parks, pet responsibility and local projects, everything was up for discussion.

Northern Queensland Legacy have once again hosted a series of heartwarming Christmas Lunches across several shires to bring the community together and ensure veterans’ families are supported this festive season. Annually, the Christmas Lunches provide a chance for widows and children of veterans to reconnect and celebrate the festive season with others who understand their unique circumstances. The Northern Queensland Legacy's Herbert River Christmas Party was held recently at the Oasis Café in Ingham where invited guests gathered together to share in a wonderful lunch and celebrated the silly season with a very competitive game of Christmas Trivia. David Burke, President of Northern Queensland Legacy, attended and sees these events as a rare opportunity to ensure that for those living in small towns or remote communities, distance doesn’t mean disconnection. “These Christmas lunches are much more than just a festive celebration. They are a vital lifeline for those who might otherwise feel isolated,” said David. “It’s in these moments of shared joy that we remind each other that we’re not alone, and that the Legacy community stands together, not just during the holidays, but every day of the year." Northern Queensland Legacy CEO, Nicole Hayes, believes the events are an essential part of Legacy’s tailored approach to addressing the challenges veterans’ widowers and children in small, remote communities face, especially when it comes to social isolation and access to services. “For many, especially those facing social isolation, these events are a lifeline, offering not just a social gathering but a reminder that they are part of a supportive network,” Nicole explained. “The sense of belonging and connection that these events foster helps reduce feelings of loneliness and builds a stronger sense of community. For those who might be living alone or distanced from family, these gatherings are a welcome opportunity to bond with others, share experiences, and feel supported in a fun, festive environment.” Northern Queensland Legacy provides a range of support services, including social activities, financial assistance, home visits, and advocacy, all aimed at connecting individuals with vital resources. “We strive to undertake regular contact including home visits and phone calls to check on people’s wellbeing to make sure that no one feels forgotten,” added Nicole. “We provide a listening ear and practical supports, including links with services and agencies. We try to create opportunities for connection to bridge the gap that isolation can create and we aim to ensure that veterans' families are supported no matter where they live.” Northern Queensland Legacy has expanded its eligibility criteria to now include the dependents of veterans who did not serve operationally or deploy overseas, opening the door for more families to access support. If your spouse served in the Australian Defence Force and you would like to check your eligibility, contact the Northern Queensland Legacy office on 4772 7533 or email admin@nqlegacy.com.au after the 26th of January 2026.

Sugarcane has always been part of Queensland’s story. From the sunlit paddocks along our coastline the sweet scent of a mill in full crush, it’s hard to imagine our state without it.
But there’s a side to the industry that many people don’t see – how far our growers have come in making cane a world leader in sustainability.
This month we reached a milestone worth celebrating. Farms accredited through our Smartcane BMP program have now earned a rare triple tick from the three most respected international sustainability umpires – VIVE, Bonsucro and ProTerra.
In layman’s terms, this means independent global auditors have confirmed that Queensland cane is grown to the highest environmental and sustainability standards.
That recognition didn’t arrive by chance. It’s the result of years of effort by growers keeping detailed records, improving soil health, managing water carefully and refining how they farm.
Today almost half of Queensland’s cane area is managed under Smartcane BMP, and that number keeps climbing.
Why does this matter? Because major buyers – from soft drink companies to overseas refiners – are demanding proof their sugar comes from responsible sources.
Thanks to the dedication of our growers, Queensland cane can meet that test. In fact, we’re now one of the very few cane-growing regions on the planet able to offer this level of verified sustainability.
And it’s not just about the environment. Smartcane BMP helps farmers build stronger, more profitable businesses, which means healthier regional communities and a stronger state economy.
When Queensland sugarcane is recognised internationally, the benefits flow to everyone – from the workers in the mills to the small businesses in our towns.
So next time you stir a spoonful of sugar into your tea or coffee, think of the people behind it – the Queensland growers proving that you can farm sustainably and stay competitive on the global stage.
They deserve every bit of the pride we feel today.
As CANEGROWERS prepares to celebrate its centenary in 2026, the organisation is inviting the community to help build a unique photo collection that captures 100 years of cane country history.
Locals are encouraged to dig out their treasured sugarcane snapshots — from family moments on the farm to milestones in the industry — and share them on Facebook or by emailing info@canegrowers.com.au.
The collection will form part of a centenary showcase honouring the people and stories behind the sugarcane industry. Selected photographs may even feature in a special-edition 2026 Centenary Calendar, ensuring the region’s history is preserved and celebrated for generations to come.
Your photos could help tell the story of a century of cane country!
The search is on for inspiring rural women to step forward, with applications now open for the 2026 AgriFutures Australia Rural Women’s Award.
The award recognises and celebrates inclusive and courageous leadership by women involved in Australia’s rural and emerging industries, businesses, and communities.
Queensland’s 2025 state winner and Chief Executive Officer of the Food and Agribusiness Network, Nicole McNaughton, said she encouraged all rural women to put themselves forward.
"The Rural Women’s Award has been a life-changing opportunity to grow and connect with like-minded, passionate and supportive women,” Ms McNaughton said.
"It's given me the opportunity to grow personally and professionally while connecting with an inspiring network of Queensland finalists – the inspiring Libby Cook-Black and Angie Nisbet.”
Department of Primary Industries (DPI) Deputy Director-General Biosecurity Rachel Chay said the awards are an important reminder of the crucial role women play in regional communities.
"We are so lucky in Queensland to have so many inspiring women in our communities who lead with strength and courage,” Ms Chay said.
"The DPI is pleased to support the 2026 AgriFutures Australia Rural Women’s Award – not only to recognise and celebrate the amazing women leading in our rural communities, but to equip them with the resources to bring their boldest and most innovative ideas to life.”
As part of her win, Ms McNaughton received a $15,000 grant from Westpac to further her work and will represent Queensland at the 2025 National Gala in Canberra on Tuesday, the 28th of October.
"I’m excited for the upcoming National Gala – it's a chance to reconnect with my fellow state winners, celebrate the strength of rural women, and proudly fly the flag for Queensland. This journey has re-energised my passion for building ecosystems where women support one another,” Ms McNaughton said.
Westpac, the award’s platinum sponsor for more than 15 years, will provide a $20,000 grant to the National winner and $15,000 to the runner-up. Queensland finalists also benefit from the support of state sponsor, the Queensland Country Women’s Association, which provides a $2,000 grant to each finalist, alongside access to professional development and alumni networks.
For women not quite ready to apply for the award, AgriFutures also offers a $7,000 Rural Women’s Acceleration Grant to support leadership and development opportunities.
Applications for both the 2026 Rural Women’s Award and Rural Women’s Acceleration Grant close on Friday, the 7th of November 2025. Follow the links to Apply!
Water and fertiliser are two of the biggest costs – and opportunities – for cane farmers, and new insights are highlighting how the two are closely linked.
According to Farmacist agronomists, irrigation scheduling can play a decisive role in whether nitrogen fertiliser is effectively used by the crop or lost through run-off, leaching or denitrification.
With sugarcane heavily reliant on nitrogen for growth, ensuring the nutrient remains in the root zone is vital. Poorly timed irrigations risk washing valuable fertiliser away before the cane has a chance to use it.
Tools such as the GDot soil moisture sensor are proving to be a simple yet effective way for growers to fine-tune irrigation timing. By monitoring soil moisture, farmers can better match water applications to crop needs, reducing stress on cane while improving fertiliser efficiency.
Farmacist says the benefits extend beyond productivity. Smarter irrigation not only helps keep nitrogen where it belongs but also reduces environmental losses, supporting both economic and sustainability outcomes for the industry.
“By aligning irrigation with crop demand, growers can make every drop of water – and every kilogram of nitrogen – work harder for them,” the article notes.
With the Queensland farming regions so dependent on irrigation, adopting these strategies offers significant potential to lift yields while lowering costs and protecting waterways.

Artificial intelligence is set to play an increasingly important role in shaping the future of agriculture, and an upcoming Sugar Research Australia (SRA) webinar will explore just how transformative that potential could be.
The free online event, AI-guided breeding to develop future crops, will be held on Friday, 10 October at 2pm (AEST), bringing together leading voices in the field to discuss the opportunities of applying AI to plant breeding.
Guest presenter Professor Lee Hickey from the University of Queensland will outline how artificial intelligence can harness large and complex datasets across four key stages of the breeding pipeline, accelerating the development of more resilient and productive crops.
The session will also highlight the importance of capacity building and training, ensuring the next generation of plant breeders are equipped with predictive breeding skills that will shape Australia’s agricultural future.
Webinar chair Dr Nathalie Piperidis of SRA said the event would offer practical insights into how digital tools can enhance traditional breeding methods.
“The pace of technological change in agriculture is rapid, and this webinar is a chance to hear from experts at the forefront of using AI to solve real-world breeding challenges,” she said.
The presentation will conclude with an overview of the Australian Research Council Training Centre in Predictive Breeding, a national initiative focused on advancing skills and innovation in this space.

A final reminder to growers regarding the Global Traders Roadshow featuring Wilmar’s Senior Sugar Trader Peter Bingham. Peter is currently in India attending the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) convention, which means he will bring the very latest insights into Indian crop developments and ethanol policy for the year ahead. With India’s production forecast rising sharply this season, the country’s decisions around exports and ethanol could play a crucial role in shaping sugar prices for the tail end of the 2025 season pricing period.
With the weather cooperating and the mills running well, the end of season could be upon us before we know it. We’re already fielding enquiry from growers about their pricing status with the GEI Sugar they have delivered so far to determine whether they can confidently start pricing their GMPRS orders. To support this process, we have developed a new exposure monitoring tool to give growers clearer visibility of their position and help manage final pricing decisions as the season winds down.
As always, if growers are concerned about their final estimated delivery against pricing commitments please talk to your local Relationship Manager as soon as possible. We have options to deal with production shortfalls and the sooner we identify a potential issue the more flexibility we have in managing it.
On the global stage, #11 sugar prices continue to languish while the Brazilian crush powers ahead. A record 55 per cent sugar mix in the latest UNICA report has analysts revising their final Brazilian sugar production number higher. However, ethanol parity continues to ratchet higher with current estimates above 16 USc/lb.
The next couple of UNICA reports will be interesting to see if there is a switch back from sugar with ethanol stocks low in Brazil. A stronger AUD driven by a weak USD is adding to the uphill battle the AUD sugar swap price is facing.
I look forward to seeing you at our Global Traders Roadshow next week and introducing you to our expanding team. RSVP’s close this week so if you would like to attend, please contact your local Grower Marketing Relationship Manager to secure your spot.

The first time you push open the doors of the Hinchinbrook Shire Library, you feel the hum of possibilities. You’re in a space built not just for books, but for connection, discovery, and community.
You could begin your visit in the friendly foyer, greeted by staff who ask, “How can I help you today?” Maybe you’re here to borrow a book, or maybe you’ve come in to explore the digital collection.
The Library makes its eResources — ebooks, audiobooks — easy to access from home or in the building. That’s how you library, through both physical and virtual shelves.
When First 5 Forever Storytime arrives, toddlers and kids take over a carpeted corner. They dance between puppets, giggle at rhymes, and listen to tales of far-off lands. Parents and carers join in, sharing in the magic. That’s how you library, by nurturing imagination and literacy from the earliest years.
Later in the day, the study nooks are occupied. A student is deep into local history, scrolling through digitised council archives.
Another patron comes in for the Tech Help Desk: “Can you show me how to use the library’s WiFi? Or how to access online learning tools?” Staff lead the way, patient and kind. That’s how you library, by bridging gaps, making technology accessible.
You might see the local book club gathered in a bright corner, discussing last month’s pick. Or an author workshop unfolding, the walls alive with creativity. Sometimes there’s craft, other times music, sometimes community meetings.
That’s how you library, by being the gathering place for voices and stories.
At Hinchinbrook Shire Library, “library” isn’t just where you go. It’s something you experience. Because “how do you library” is: however, you want.
Join us these September school holidays, from Monday 22 September to Saturday 4 October 2025, for a range of fun, free activities for all ages.
And the best thing about all of this? It’s free! Why not join up today at 73-75 McIlwraith Street, Ingham?

When it comes to protecting your family, a few simple precautions can make all the difference. That’s where Safehome, a free initiative by the Queensland Fire Department (QFD), comes in. Designed to help householders identify and eliminate fire and general safety hazards, Safehome offers personalised advice right where it matters most – in your own home.
Upon request, firefighters will visit your property at a time that suits you, inspecting for potential hazards and offering practical solutions. They can also advise on the correct placement of smoke alarms and discuss broader fire safety concerns. The aim is simple but powerful: to reduce house fires, prevent injury, and protect property.
Safehome is available to all Queenslanders, though in regions serviced by volunteer brigades, in-person visits may not be possible. Instead, residents can request a Safehome Kit and a Bushfire Preparedness package through 13 QGOV (13 74 68), providing the tools needed to create a safer home environment.
Tenants are encouraged to book their own visits, as the person living in the property must make the call. If firefighters recommend changes such as installing a smoke alarm, tenants can raise these suggestions with their landlord or agent to ensure compliance and safety.
Booking a visit is easy and FREE – simply complete the online form at www.qld.gov.au/emergency/safety/safehome-booking or call 13 QGOV (13 74 68).
Technology is changing the way we live and work, opening new opportunities for small and medium businesses right here in North Queensland. From streamlining everyday operations to reaching new customers, the benefits are endless. But alongside these advances comes a growing challenge: cybersecurity.
Cybercrime is no longer just a big-city issue. Local businesses are now prime targets, with email scams, data breaches, and ransomware attacks on the rise. The truth is, it can take just one weak password or outdated system to put an entire business—and its reputation—at risk.
That’s where Logilytics comes in. As a family-owned business based in Ingham, they're passionate about supporting our region with practical, community-focused IT solutions. For Logilytics, it’s not about creating fear—it’s about building resilience. Every business, no matter its size, deserves peace of mind when it comes to protecting their data, their customers, and their future.
The team, led by owners Ben and Jess Barbi, combines expertise with a personal approach. From managed IT services and cyber protection to communications and networking, they're here to keep North Queensland businesses connected and secure, and with trainees like Seth Morton and Cameron Giuffrida joining the team, they're investing in the next generation of local tech support too.
At Logilytics, they believe technology should empower, not overwhelm. With the right tools, strong security practices, and the right people beside you, communities can thrive in an increasingly digital world.
