Empowering Growers: Community Weather Stations for Better Climate-Smart Decisions
Introduction
In India, agriculture faces significant challenges due to the lack of reliable and accessible weather data. Growers often grapple with the consequences of unpredictable weather patterns, hindering their ability to make informed decisions. At PhyFarm, we recognize the urgent need for better climate-smart solutions. Our initiative focuses on deploying Community Weather Stations at the village or district level, providing all growers in the region with real-time weather data to enhance their decision-making.
