A South Burnett farmer has been airlifted to hospital after a motorcycle accident while mustering cattle on a property west of Durong on Monday morning.
The man, aged in his 40s, suffered suspected head and leg injuries, including a broken right leg.
He was treated at the scene by Queensland Ambulance Service paramedics.
The incident occurred about 10:00am.
An RACQ LifeFlight spokesperson said the man’s wife became concerned after her husband failed to return home after his morning muster and she began searching their property.
The Toowoomba-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter was called to the property at 11.20am and airlifted the farmer to Toowoomba Hospital in a stable condition.
