Electoral results for the Agricultural Region

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

This is a list of electoral results for the Agricultural Region in Western Australian state elections from the region's creation in 1989 until the present.

Legislation to abolish the region, along with all other Western Australian electoral regions, was passed in November 2021, with the 2025 state election to use a single state-wide electorate of 37 members.[1]
