Exporters are calling for the federal government to introduce stronger measurers to protect the industry from global shocks.

Red meat exports have been re-routed or turned around as a result of the Middle East Conflict, while some cargo has been forced to dock at just the nearest port. 

The Freight and Trade Alliance says while such disruptions were expected after war in Iran broke out, they are still costly. 

Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke with Freight Policy and Operations General Manager Tom Jensen about the costs and how the industry can be safeguarded.
