Suppose the right amount of rain would fall in the right location at the optimal frequency, making all the difference between crop yields and cuttings during the growing seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Rainfall to a farmer is what a truck is to a trucker, and it\u2019s vital for the whole operation. To be clear, water is a precious commodity, and it\u2019s being stretched.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to today, our home realize on a well as our primary source of water. Its supply is not infinite, and we must conserve and find cleaver capture methods to protect that resource; as the saying goes, \u201cwithout water, you have nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I believe a homeowner\u2019s understanding of their annual rainfall will help them make informed decisions on watering needs in and around their home. Not only does it help protect our water resources, but a simple Rain Gauge can save you money.<br \/>\nMY STORY<\/p>\n<p>My name is Jim, and my wife and I own and manage 40 acres southwest of Austin, TX, in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. We&#8217;ve lived here for 20 years, but the land continues to be passed down in the family for generations since 1869.<\/p>\n<p>Austin, Texas, is a booming town, and our once-rural setting has seen continued growth and urban sprawl. So in 2017, my wife and I converted our acreage from agriculture use to wildlife conservation activities to maintain open space and preserve water quality.<br \/>\nAside from our land Stewardship activities, my wife and I enjoy traveling, reading, writing, and I am an Amateur Radio operator licensed by the FCC.<\/p>\n<p>JI<\/p>\n","url":"http:\/\/www.theraingauge.com\/","url_text":"theraingauge.com","main_services":"Personal Weather Station , Energy Saving Device , Rain gauge , Seeds , Sustainable , Eco-Friendly","image_1":"https:\/\/diib.com\/featuredmembers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/theraingauge2.jpg","client_review":"The concise information all-in-one dashboard.
