Industry recovery and resilience officers

The Industry Recovery and Resilience Officer (IRRO) program assists primary producers impacted by:

• Southern Queensland flooding (6–20 May 2022) (PDF, 12.3MB)
• South East Queensland rainfall and flooding (22 February – 5 April 2022) (PDF, 859KB)
• Ex-Tropical Cyclone Seth (29 December 2021 –10 January 2022) (PDF, 1.6MB)
• Central, Southern and Western Queensland rainfall and flooding (10 November – 3 December 2021) (PDF, 4.6MB).

We can help you with specialised long-term recovery support to:

• better understand climate risks and develop strategies to mitigate risk to their farm businesses
• develop farm business plans and flood management plans to build resilience to the impacts of future climate-driven events such as flood, bushfires and drought
• apply for a Primary Producer Flood Management Grant of up to $7500 towards the cost of professional advice (received on or after 18 May 2022) — check if you are eligible.

The IRRO program and the recovery loans are jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland Governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA).
