Farmers drought assistance - immediate write-off for fodder storage

As part of an assistance program to help drought-stricken farmers, the Government has announced that it will allow primary producers to immediately deduct (rather than depreciate over 3 years) the cost of fodder storage assets, such as silos and tanks used to store grain and other animal feed storage.
