Invasive pests and weeds and the future of mining and clean energy have been raised as major issues of concern to farmers in the Bathurst and Oberon region.
About 300 landholders took part in the New South Wales Farmers' Association's region six forum at the weekend.
The region's chairman, John Lowe, says there were presentations on alternative energy, workers' compensation and disease and biosecurity.
He says it was also a chance for the Association to discuss where it should direct its resources in the future.
"We had an hour session dealing with some of the issues that New South Wales farmers are dealing with at the moment and that covered such topics as invasive animals, invasive plant species," he said.
