Liverpool plains farmer and agricultural advocate Tim Duddy will stand as an independent for the Upper Hunter against sitting National member George Souris on 26 March.
"I want to bring a strong new voice to the Upper Hunter that is about fairness, protecting productive agricultural land, valuable water resources and encouraging regional diversity putting the local communities first" Mr. Duddy said.
"As an independent I will speak out about the things that really matter to this community.
"The Upper Hunter has not been served well by the major parties. The unfettered expansion of the mining and gas industry is threatening long-term sustainability of other industries across the valley.
"I want to see a diverse valley where the existing and productive local industries including wineries, tourism, thoroughbred breeding and agriculture are able to work side by side, not be pushed out by mining.
"I will be promoting improvement in regional services.
"There is a chronic shortage of infrastructure, health professionals and police in the region. Given the areas enormous contribution to the NSW Government coffers, the local community deserves more," Mr Duddy said.
