    As Victoria's grassland dries, the CFA warns of increased fire risk

    Grassland in Victoria has dried significantly since September, including in the north-west of the state and in outer Melbourne, putting firefighters on edge.

    The Seasonal Bushfire Outlook has predicted an "increased risk" of fires for most of Victoria. 

    Residents are being urged to prepare their properties and bushfire plans. 

    The sprawling paddocks of Mack Stagg's East Gippsland property have looked lush and green over the past three months.

    But the colours can turn quickly — and when they do, the cattle farmer knows the danger the change can bring.

    Strong north westerly winds will develop over the south west and central districts, in what will be a dry and hot day as severe heatwave conditions enter the north east of the state. Maximum temperatures will reach 42 to 44 degrees in the north and 39 to 41 in the south.

    A Total Fire Ban means no fire can be lit in the open air or allowed to remain alight from 12.01am to 11.59pm on the day of the Total Fire Ban. 

    CFA Chief Officer Jason Heffernan said the next three days are going to be extremely challenging for both firefighters and those living and travelling in high-risk areas due to the hot and dry conditions, and people should be prepared to leave early and take action.

    China announced a new raft of trade measures to protect its domestic beef industry.

    These include an added 55 per cent tariff on beef imports that exceed quotas from several countries, including Australia. 

    The Australian Meat Industry Council says the measures could cost the industry about $1 billion.

    An Australian meat industry peak body says China's move to impose an added 55 per cent tariff on beef imports that exceed quota levels from several countries including Australia will have a "severe impact" and that it is "extremely disappointed".

    Australia’s trade and agriculture ministers have condemned China’s shock decision to impose new tariffs that could cost the beef industry $1 billion a year.

    China, the world’s biggest importer of beef, overnight set the new import duties of 55 per cent above a certain quota to protect its local farmers from international competition of major export nations including Argentina, Brazil and Australia.
