Bureau of Meteorology has released the first of its Regional Weather and Climate Guides designed to give farmers the best possible climate information available to help make sound business decisions.<\/p>\n

Twenty guides have been prepared so far.<\/p>\n

Although the Burnett-Mary region (which includes the South Burnett) is not among the first release, a guide for this area should be published before the end of the year.<\/p>\n

The guides are available to download from the BOM website<\/a><\/strong> but will also be made available through the National Farmer’s Federation FarmHub<\/strong> <\/a>and the Climate Kelpie<\/a><\/strong> websites.<\/p>\n

The $2.7 million project to prepare the guides was part of the Federal Government\u2019s Drought Assistance Package.<\/p>\n

Minister for Drought David Littleproud said the guides would give farmers a clearer picture of what to expect in upcoming seasons<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis will give farmers the best possible guidance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guides will make sure cockies know their climate risks and opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis includes rainfall and temperature trends, frost risk, when to expect the wet season, and the nature of local droughts, floods and heatwaves.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will help with decisions such as when to plant crops, put fodder aside, lease land, build water storages or take out loans.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve worked with local farming groups so the data meets the needs of each region.”<\/p>\n

The guides have been produced by the Bureau of Meteorology, FarmLink and CSIRO in consultation with rural businesses, communities and farmer groups.<\/p>\n
