Farmers challenge Nationals' claim drought unrelated to climate change

Farmers and National party voters say they are 'increasingly frustrated' at the lack of action on climate change

Farmer and former Nationals leader John Anderson said this week that while the drought was the worst he had experienced, it was not unprecedented.
