While farmers must make many day-to-day decisions related to weather conditions, there are four primary areas of farming that are fundamentally affected impacted by weather:

• Crop Growth/Irrigation Planning: Crop growth ad crop yield is directly effected by moisture, light and temperature. By detailed and accurate measurements and forecast weather information growth status can be tracked and better decisions can made.
• Fertilizer Timing and Delivery: Determining the proper time to apply fertilizer is extremely important for agricural applications. Fertilizing in the wrong weather conditions can wipe away the entire field’s profits. Weather forecasts can be used to ensure that fertilizer is applied in the right conditions—when it’s dry enough so that it doesn’t wash away (which would create a waste of resources and money) but moist enough so that it gets worked into the soil.
• Pest and Disease Control: Certain weather conditions encourage the development and growth of pests and diseases, which can destroy crops. Wind forecasts also play a role in this decision, as crop dusters that spray fungicidal or insecticidal chemicals on plants from above, must be utilized when wind conditions are not apt to cause sprayed chemicals to miss their targets.
• Field Workability: Field workability refers to the availability of days that are suitable for fieldwork. It’s primarily dependent upon soil moisture and soil temperature. Accurate field-level weather information can help farmers assess the workability of their fields and become more efficient in their day-to-day operations.
