Integrating a Weather Station into the Farm
As the agricultural sector is one of the most weather-dependent, it is important to have accurate, precise, and reliable weather data for profitable and efficient production. Weather stations make it possible to monitor this data, increasing the accuracy of microclimate monitoring and providing support for more effective planning of your Farm.
The data collected is sent to Wisecrop and makes the bioclimatic and pest and disease models more accurate.
In addition, with the weather station it is possible to manage irrigation more efficiently, since the data obtained allows you to quantify the water supplement provided by rainfall and the evapotranspiration carried out by a given crop.
Key advantages:
- Monitoring of the farm's microclimate
- Calculation of evapotranspiration
- Bioclimatic models (chill hours, degree days, and sunshine hours)
- Pest and disease risks
Sensors that make up a weather station
- Air temperature and humidity
- Pyranometer (solar radiation);
- Rain gauge (precipitation);
- Anemometer (wind direction and speed);
- Leaf wetness sensor
