Welcome to the 2005 edition of Research for the Riverine Plains.
As always, Riverine Plains has benefited from so many outstanding contributors over the past year. Indeed, it is important not to underestimate the amount of work required to make an organisation that now turns over more that $200,000 p.a. successful and sustainable.
The committee continue to make a huge contribution to the group. For some years now, we have run within the committee a series of sub-committees, meaning that all members of the committee have hands on involvement in some part of the group’s program. The Victorian and NSW DPI continue to make an invaluable contribution to Riverine Plains through sitting on the general committee as well as contributing to specific projects and events.
Riverine Plains has also continued to gain outstanding support from its financial sponsors. Looking back now, the support we have received from sponsors from the very beginning has been amazing, considering where we started from. They are a big part of the group’s financial self-sufficiency, a critical attribute. Moreover, the individuals that represent the companies are all keen agriculturalists and make important contributions to the committee from this additional point of view.
