The news you’ve been waiting for: Countryman’s rainfall chart is coming on December 15, thanks to CBH Group

For farmers across Western Australia, checking the rain gauge and recording the numbers each day is second nature. And while we love tech as much as the next member of the agriculture industry, there is just something about pen and paper. You must know this — you’re reading the newspaper! We have some great news for our rain-loving readers — the Countryman’s rainfall chart will be published in this week’s paper. A thoughtful present for Christmas, the much-loved calendar will be wrapped around the December 15 edition. With a thick, gloss paper, the rainfall chart is perfect for pinning on the wall in the shed, office or home. This year’s chart is brought to you by CBH Group and the Countryman, for the second year in a row. Countryman sales manager Sharna Bore said the annual rainfall chart was loved by the rural community. “The easy-to-read chart is perfect for pinning on a wall in the shed, home office, or inside the house,” she said. “Around this time each year our phones start ringing with farmers wanting to know what date the chart will be around the paper. “It is great to have CBH on board as our sponsor and we look forward to working with them in the future.” CBH chief external relations officer David Paton said the co-operative was happy to support the rainfall chart. “The rainfall chart is a popular and handy tool among WA growers, which we are proud to support,” he said. “After last years’ record harvest, it’s an exciting proposition to be looking at another bumper harvest that could rival the previous season. “It’s a huge credit to our growers and their innovative agricultural practices, leading the way in industry best practice.”
