🚜 Fuel and fertiliser access critical for bushfire recovery

Murrindindi Shire Council is calling on State and Federal Governments to prioritise access to fuel and fertiliser for bushfire-impacted communities.

Following the January 2026 fires, reliable access to diesel and fertiliser is essential to support clean-up, rebuild fencing, restore pasture and keep farms operating.

Mayor Damien Gallagher, Murrindindi Shire Councillor said recovery depends on being able to act quickly.

“Fuel is not optional in a recovery like this - it underpins every part of getting people back on their feet.”

“With fencing losses alone estimated to exceed $120 million, our community cannot afford further delays or cost pressures.”

Council is advocating for practical support, including:
✔️ Priority access to fuel for producers and recovery works
✔️ Financial support to offset rising fuel costs
✔️ Action to stabilise fertiliser supply

This is about ensuring our community can recover, rebuild and remain viable.
