Federal Parliament has passed new laws banning websites and social media sites from inciting users to trespass on farms.

Earlier in the year, a website published the details of thousands of Australian farms, raising privacy concerns when a string of animal activists trespassed on farms and encouraged others to do the same.

As a result, the Coalition promised to implement these laws, with Agriculture Minister Bridget McKenzie saying that farmers should feel safe at home and at work.
