Australian government ready to intervene in right-to-repair farm machinery dispute.

The Australian government is prepared to intervene if manufacturers and farmers can't agree on the right-to-repair farm machinery, following similar issues in the US where a lawsuit was filed against John Deere. Talks between the Tractor and Machinery Association of Australia and the National Farmers Federation have been ongoing for two years without success. If a voluntary agreement isn't reached, the government may step in to allow more independent repairs, aiming to reduce costs and downtime for farmers.
