My question to the minister follows on from the one from the member for Mayo. It concerns a similar topic, given that in the Adelaide area much of the original agricultural land is slowly being swallowed up by urban development. When you combine that with the effects of climate change on our food production, can the minister comment on what policies and strategies are being implemented at federal level to overcome both of these serious concerns to our food security?
