She said she believed farmers were hurting because of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan.
“Helen is a farmer and knows a lot about water and if we don’t have water in this area we don’t have anything – it’s a semi-arid area,” she said
Mrs Buller, a former Nationals Party supporter, was handing out how to vote cards for Mrs Dalton and the Group V ticket in the Legislative Council.
“This year we’ve only got about 52 or 53 per cent of our water allocation. Give us more water and we’ll grow more food.
“I voted for Piccoli in the past, we’ve always been Nationals farmers but Mr Piccoli doesn’t appear to be doing enough for our area.”
