Monday marks the anniversary of the documentary known as Dominion. Social media posts indicate that groups with links to more than seven different activist organisations are behind the proposed activity.

It is not known who or what will be targeted but with start times of 5.30am for Melbourne and Sydney and 1.30am in Brisbane the logistics needed to travel to regional areas are there. 

In recent times Lemontree feedlot, a family owned business in Queensland, was targeted by activists. Footage from this event was later posted on the Aussie Farms social media sites. 

Members of the rural sector are not sure what to expect. And if social media chatter is to be a guide the participants in the Dominion action on Monday remain in the dark too.

One person wrote on a animal activist forum: "I can't afford to be arrested." And another replied "it sounds like peaceful action."

STATEMENT FROM MINISTER FOR AGRICULTURE ADAM MARSHALL: Minister for Agriculture Adam Marshall has strongly condemned reports of animal activist demonstrations targeting farmers expected to be held across Australia early next week.

Mr Marshall slammed the proposed demonstrations, which would mark one year on since the release of the film 'Dominion', a documentary that claims to 'expose the dark underbelly of modern animal agriculture'.

"The people behind this film and these demonstrations will stop at nothing in their quest to destroy legitimate industries and the rural communities they support," Mr Marshall said.

"This irresponsible vigilante behaviour presents a very real and very serious risk to our

State's primary industries as well as individual farmers and their families.

"As Minister for Agriculture, I will not stand by and watch such a sustained and deliberate campaign against our state's farmers."

In January this year, Aussie Farms, released an online interactive map detailing the locations, operations and contact details of farms around Australia, causing widespread criticism from farmers and industry groups.

Mr Marshall said the release of the website and the 'documentary' film, potentially encouraged people to enter farms illegally.

"I strongly condemn any illegal trespass or activism on farms in NSW as well as any activity that encourages such abhorrent behaviour," Mr Marshall said.

"Not only are farms businesses, they are also the homes of our hardworking farming families and we cannot sit idly by as the safety of our farmers and their families are put at risk.

"That's why our Government has committed to urgently reviewing trespass laws and associated penalties, ensuring we can effectively protect farmers against such extreme and alarming methods of activism."
