Drought declarations extended to late 2005
17 Nov 2004

The federal government said it would continue its drought support programs covering more than half Australia's arable area for another year, as the recent rains were not enough for recovery. Farmers eligible for support can receive dole payments, interest rate subsidies and free financial and personal counselling.
