Working in partnership with Agri Labour Australia, we’re looking for people to join our harvest teams at Moree, Bellata, Bogan Gate, Manildra, Tabbita, Stockinbingal and Grong Grong.

These seasonal roles are a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the Australian agriculture industry, work as part of a supportive team and help keep grain moving during one of the busiest times of the year.

The latest edition of the Shoalhaven Starches Community Newsletter is now available on our website, sharing updates from across our Shoalhaven Starches site in Nowra, NSW.

In this edition, we recognise an important Zero Harm milestone, with the Shoalhaven Starches team achieving more than 12 months without a lost-time injury and highlight the rollout of Mates Looking Out for Mates, which has seen more than 400 employees take part in mental health and peer-support training.

We also share more about plans to strengthen Australia’s fuel security through increased Australian-made ethanol production, improvements helping to reduce delays at local rail crossings, and the role of our quarterly Community Consultative Committee meetings in supporting open, two-way dialogue with our neighbours and community.

These stories reflect the continued focus at Shoalhaven Starches on safety, our people, local investment and maintaining strong connections with the community in which we operate.

Why isn’t Australia using more of the ethanol we already produce?

A Current Affair recently spotlighted the opportunity to expand the use of locally made ethanol in our fuel mix-boosting fuel security, supporting regional communities, and offering motorists a cleaner, more affordable option.

Manildra Group CFO Ian Hanrahan outlined a practical, ready-now solution: Australian-made ethanol, produced in regional communities, supporting local jobs and strengthening our national fuel supply.

Great to see this important conversation gaining attention, thank you Deborah Knight and A Current Affair.

Have you spotted our new locomotives and wagons around NSW?

Captured rolling past our Shoalhaven Starches site on the south coast of NSW, Manildra Group’s new rolling stock forms part of our $250 million investment in rail, our largest single rail investment.

With 17 next-generation locomotives and 385 wagons joining our network, this investment is helping move more Australian-grown wheat, flour and finished goods by rail, strengthening supply chain resilience and supporting reliable supply to our facilities and customers.

India continues to accelerate its ethanol program, with motorists soon able to choose from a range of higher ethanol blends including E20, E22, E25 and E30 at the pump.

The move follows the introduction of new fuel standards and further investment in retail fuel infrastructure, giving consumers more choice while helping reduce reliance on imported oil.

While nations around the world are expanding ethanol use to strengthen energy security and reduce fuel import dependence, Australia's domestic ethanol industry remains significantly underutilised.

The question is no longer whether ethanol has a role to play in fuel security, it's how quickly countries are prepared to act.

The conversation around fuel rationing in Australia is no longer hypothetical.

Recent headlines and government planning documents have highlighted just how exposed Australia remains to ongoing global fuel supply disruptions — and this issue is far from over.

While emergency fuel shipments may ease immediate pressure, Australia’s fuel security challenge will not be resolved quickly. The conversation around fuel rationing, supply resilience and long-term energy security is likely to continue throughout the rest of 2026.

At the same time, Australian-made ethanol is already being produced here in regional NSW from Australian agricultural products — ready to blend now.

Strengthening local biofuels means strengthening domestic fuel security, regional manufacturing and Australia’s long-term fuel resilience.

A potential ceasefire may ease tensions in the Middle East — but experts warn the worst of Australia’s fuel disruption could still be ahead.

Shipping delays, constrained supply chains and global competition for fuel reserves are expected to continue for months.

As countries around the world scramble to secure supply, increase reserves and manage fuel shortages, Australia remains heavily reliant on imported refined fuels.

Home-grown fuel solutions matter more than ever.

Australian-made ethanol is ready to blend now — supporting regional jobs, local manufacturing and greater fuel security.

Donald Trump says he has “largely negotiated” an end to the war with Iran as part of a deal that would halt hostilities for 60 days and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, despite strong concerns within his own party that the bargain could leave Tehran’s Islamic regime in a stronger position.
