Farmers anger over energy companies accessing private land for renewable energy projects in Victoria

View descriptionShare

Farmers in Victoria are continuing to slam laws allowing energy companies access to private farmland to build renewable energy transmission lines. 

Section 93 notices have been issued to farmers in the path of the VNI West Transmission lines, permitting companies to enter land without consent. 

The Victorian Farmers Federation says the move disrespects farmers rights and businesses.

Rural Reporter Toby Gough spoke to President Brett Hosking about the move.
