Summary
Sixty-eight laid-off workers at SunRice’s Deniliquin mill are sending shockwaves through a town built on rice — drought, soaring water costs, and a shrinking harvest have forced the southern hemisphere’s biggest processor to slash jobs, threatening local businesses and livelihoods. With one in five town jobs tied to rice, ripple effects are already hitting rent, shops, and farms. SunRice’s CEO hints at more cuts unless water access improves, while a $70 million modernization plan aims to pivot to snacks and rice cakes — but the future remains uncertain as government talks continue.
