THE CBH Group has released their full 2019 Annual Report following the release of our Financial Report in mid-December and finish to the harvest season. This season the Albany Zone reported 2,629,000 tonnes of grain harvested from across the region. Last season the Albany Zone reported a smaller harvest with 2,614,000 tonnes of grain harvested due to mixed weather conditions. Some of the key highlights in the report showed a strong operational performance in a number of areas, including record-breaking rail movements and strong growth in fertiliser sales. Driven by a near record harvest of 16.4 million tonnes, the CBH rail infrastructure moved the largest amount on record with 8.9 million tonnes of grain sent by rail to port terminals during the 12 months to the end of September 2019. This included six million tonnes moved within the Kwinana Zone to the Kwinana Grain Terminal for bulk export. A total of 13.8 million tonnes were shipped from four grain terminals, with the Kwinana Grain Terminal shipping 6.2 million tonnes of grain.
