Weather monitoring that eliminates guesswork
Generalised forecasts don’t show you what the weather is doing on your farm. Our systems do.
Monitor weather accurately. Our weather monitoring stations can track the weather around the farm, including temperature, wind, rain, humidity and more to give you a complete picture of what the weather is doing.

Rain Sensor
Rain Sensor Benefits
On a grassland farm, measuring rainfall can be a baseline for decision-making around planting, harvesting and building seasonal farming patterns.
With our digital rain gauges, you can eliminate the need to manually check rain gauges and record the readings. Instead, you’ll be able to see daily, weekly, monthly and year-to-date rainfall on your smart mobile device.
Graphs
Graphs display data trends so you can see the current situation and where things are headed.
Wireless
Wirelessly connected to the internet gives you access to your data on your phone wherever you are.
Plug & Play
