The Australian government announced on Saturday that it is concerned about the mouse invasion in the western part of the country, a persistent problem in grain-producing regions. Energy Minister Chris Bowen emphasized the importance of collaborating with the industrial sector to reduce the impact of this invasion on food supply, both locally and internationally. Grain producers in Western Australia have warned about crop losses and have requested access to stronger poison to combat the mice. Bowen described the situation as extremely difficult for farmers and the industry. Australia, being the fourth largest wheat exporter in the world, experienced a similar invasion in 1993, which had devastating consequences for crops and farm animals. The government continues to monitor the situation and take measures to support affected farmers.
