Rainfall figures and crop prospects for Jamestown area
The report notes very low rainfall for Jamestown in the first half year ending June 20, with 4.64 inches and June’s 14 wet days. Historical figures show wide variation. Perth records 22.25 inches for the review period. Crops from Betalie North to Crystal Brook show strong germination but small delays due to weather, with ample time for good yields if rain returns in suitable intervals. Feed started well in May but recent frosty conditions slowed growth.
