Rob and Katharine McBride - Tolarno Station - When the river stops running!

Robert and Katharine McBride are pastoralists in far-west NSW, along with their 3 children. Their property is approximately 400,000 acres, has been owned by the McBrides since the 1940s.

The Darling River runs through the property, bringing lifeblood to the parched land.

Over the last 5 years, they have become passionate advocates for the Darling River, since they have seen it decline significantly.

They have been involved in the  Four Corners report which brought to light the alleged theft and maladministration in the Barwon-Darling river, presented at the SA Royal Commission and at numerous Parliamentary Inquiries into the Murray-Darling Basin.

At the start of this year, Rob made headlines around the world when he spoke out about the death of millions of dead fish at Menindee, whilst holding a decades-old Murray Cod.

They continue to be outspoken on the health of the Murray-Darling. 

Our dying heartland and future food insecurity is due to Government Decsions, not Drought!
