We were thrilled to attend the launch this week (Thursday 12 Jan 2023) of a new book by Western Australian corporate behemoth, CBH.

The Fourth Quarter: The Grain Journey Continues was commission by the Marketing & Trading division of CBH (known as Grains WA) from eTextPress and our own Peter Ramshaw wrote the text of the last 15 years of the company's activities in Western Australia (and the World) with the great help of UWA researcher Dr Katja Lee.

The book documents and celebrates the century of trading grain by CBH's marketing and trading division, which was formerly known as The Grain Pool of WA and is the sequel to the popular The Grain Journey by Michael Zekulich which was written in 1997.

Well worth a read, it is a journey of how WA grain has been traded through times of war, global  financial crises and ever changing political and regulatory environments, as well as the development of new markets and production of a range of grains. 

The book will be presented to CBH shareholders and key stakeholders as well as regional libraries across the State to help preserve the history of one of Australia's most energetic and innovative companies - and easily the most successful co-operative in the World.
