Farmers in Far Western New South Wales are continuing to push for improved weather coverage. 

Producers in rural parts of the states north-west are relying on weather forecasts from Longreach or Dubbo, with many saying they're being left in the dark. 

The Pastoralists Association of West Darling is raising questions about the 96 million dollar bill for the bureau of meteorology's website upgrade. 

Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke to President Sam Beven about the concerns.
