- PTSD Love Stories is a story of hope and an exploration of the identity, love and relationships of the carers who give up their dreams to care for those they love. Their patients are their nearest and dearest who suffer from PTSD as a result of trauma incurred in their work in the triple zero services of Fire, Ambulance and Police, and the Australian Defence Force. Who cares for the Carers? We follow three individuals who are now reawakening their dreams.

- Can you imagine life on the dairy like this: you wake up at 9 o'clock, put on the slippers, then flick on the computer to see how well your cows have milked themselves?

The Warren family has invested more than a million dollars in the country's first state-of-the-art dairy robots, that milk cows all by themselves.

- Much has been made of nation's shortage of skilled labour. But many primary producers claim there's an even greater shortage of unskilled labour across all of rural Australia. They say many Australians are no longer willing to undertake the more menial, labour intensive jobs our forebears once performed. Most horticultural regions rely on itinerant labour in the form of foreign backpackers and in one region seasonal labour shortages have become so severe that it has devised a radical solution to bring guest labour from China. The Sunraysia Mallee Economic Development Board wants federal government approval for its scheme in time for the coming summer harvest. Its plan has the support of peak farmer bodies. But this is an emotive issue, dividing opinions on both sides of the political fence.
- Australian company Regenesis has chosen the Byron Shire to develop its ideas on whole systems farming, with the emphasis on sustainability, but not everyone shares the company's vision.
- At a time when the citrus industry should be riding high with a bumper crop of premium navels, as much as 50,000 tonnes of fruit is being left to rot on trees or fed to cattle while Australian processors are using cheap Brazilian concentrate in juices. The industry faces a massive shakeout in coming years as heavily indebted growers and packers face receivership. But an eleventh hour trade deal with China signed just over a week ago may yet prove a saviour for many in the industry.
