Ross Anderson farms in Heyfield, in the MID of Gippsland, where he milks 500 crossbred cows which he likes to think of as really efficient factories, making the best use of their water allocation and keeping them fully fed and healthy to provide for the multiple families that they support. Just a heads up this chat was recorded a little while ago, and since then the farm has certainly been wet, but Ross would much prefer it wet than being too dry. It really is a great chat, so let's get into it. In the spirit of reconciliation we would like to acknowlegde the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Aussie historian, author & entertainer Jim Haynes joins Overnight each week for his unique knowledge of the not-so-famous characters from Australia's history. This week Jim shines the spotlight on James Tyson – Australia's first self-made millionaire. James Tyson (1819-1898), pastoralist, was born on 8 April 1819 near Narellan, New South Wales. By 1898 Tyson held 5,329,214 acres including 352,332 acres freehold. His stations included Tupra, Juanbung, Bangate, Goondublui and Mooroonowa in New South Wales; Heyfield in Victoria; and Glenormiston, Swanvale, Meteor Downs and Albinia Downs, Babbiloora, Carnarvon, Tully, Wyobie, Felton, Mount Russell and Tinnenburra in Queensland. Tyson was a member of the Queensland Legislative Council in 1893-98 but made only one short speech. He was a magistrate on the Maude, New South Wales, and Jondaryan, Queensland, benches, and a prominent lobbyist against the building of the Queensland transcontinental railway line by overseas capitalists on the land grant system; he opposed the Victorian border stock tax and campaigned actively for the land tenure reforms embodied in the Crown Lands Acts of 1884 in New South Wales and 1885 in Queensland. Generous to a wide range of charities, he contributed £2000 for two years to the New South Wales Sudan Contingent and variously to the building funds of the Women's College, University of Sydney, and the Church of England at Leyburn.

An extinction crisis and a jobs crisis looms for Victoria's native forests as the state government tries to continue with business as usual.Victoria's native forests are facing a crisis like never before. With species critically endangered and on the brink of extinction, and a logging industry staring down major closures. As the state-owned logging company Vic Forests is unable to keep up the supply of native timber to the Heyfield mill.But how did it get to this point?Twenty years ago, State and Federal governments created the Regional Forest Agreements, or RFAs. To give, what they said was certainty to the logging industry. Twenty years later, there is anything but certainty, and our native forests, and the species that depend on them, are in crisis.On this week's show we speak with Ed Hill, from the Goongerah Environment Centre, about the RFAs and the campaign to save what remains of Victoria's native forests.Guests: Ed Hill (GECO); Cam Walker and Michelle Van Gerrevink at the Goolengook blockade (archival audio from 1997); and the W Tree Promotion and Progress Association.Links:Goongerah Environment Centre (GECO)Wildlife of the Central Highlands (WOTCH)Petition to save Basin Creek Rainforest ComplexGoolengook forest campaign 1996-2009Earth Matters #1076 was produced by Teishan Ahearne.
