Pressure and Wind. 7. Evapotranspiration. 8. Weather Health Indices. All the activities of agriculture, from pre-sowing to post-harvest are affected by weather. As such, behavior of weather has significant influence on economy of any Nation. If weather could be predicted sufficiently in advance the farmers can take corrective measures to minimize losses in agricultural production. One of the methods used to improve farm production is by making adjustments with prevailing climate, to make the best possible use of it. This can be done by understanding prevailing agroclimatic conditions. Agroclimates, properly understood, and scientifically integrated into agroclimatic regions, can serve as valuable tools for harnessing climate potentials of the areas for crop production. It is not possible to train all the persons in the field of practical agrometeorology. In order to avoid consequent adverse effect on the operational use of agrometeorological works a felt need exist for an operational guide providing all required information. Therefore, this book has been written. This book will be helpful to manage the works like taking agrometeorological observations, maintenance of the observatory and other equipment, compilation and transmission of observations, reception of weather forecasts, preparation of advisories and their dissemination, collection of feedback from farmers and their analysis etc. This operational guide will meet the requirements of the scientific and technical personnel associated with the agrometeorological advisory system, particularly those at field level.

Hardcover. Condición: New. From the Preface Andhra Pradesh has one of the most variable rainfalls of any other state in India. Climate is a major factor affecting the profitability of rural enterprises in this state. Better knowledge of weather and climate could assist the farmers in the state in making more effective use of resources such as labour capital water etc. However like thousands of farmers across the globe the farmers in this state are also finding it hard to come to terms with the deteriorating conditions in agricultural sector marked by rising cost of cultivation and depleting ground water resources. So for scores of debt ridden small and marginal farmers there appears to be no respite from the techniques that are already available. The sufferings are unending. They are caught in the vicious circle of mounting debts and failed crops due to weather related disasters. These disasters include drought untimely rains hot and desicating winds hail storms etc. Therefore the income to the farmers in reducing substantially due to these weather abnormalities/aberrations. Therefore there is an urgent need to take up farmer friendly initiatives through better access to weather knowledge that will serve as a non monetary input. In addition the knowledge of the farmers should be strengthened to cope with environment disasters that irreversibly affect their resource base and farming systems. The books which contain terminology that assist the students researchers extension workers planners etc. are most useful and is the need of the hour. 394 pp.…

Hardcover. Condición: New. 2nd Edition. Contents: 1. Atmosphere and agricultural Meteorology. 2. Solar Radiation. 3. Temperature. 4. Pressure. 5. Wind 6. Humidity. 7. Evaporation and Transpiration. 8. Rainfall 9. Weather Disaster Management, synoptic reports, Weather forecasting and Remote sensing. 10. Crop growth modeling, climate change and climate classification. 11. Micro meteorology and Weather Modification. Globally, climate change is exerting an enormous influence on productivity of both natural and cultivated ecosystems. With growing population and its needs, nature was subjected to over exploitation at the expense of sustainability of resources and production base. Of the sciences that help us in understanding and adjusting with the nature in relation to agriculture, Agricultural Meteorology is one. There are several advanced books on this subject, but a text book on basic principles is lacking. The author has attempted to bridge the gap in clear and non-mathematical manner. The first eight chapters deal with different components of weather, followed by chapters on applications of meteorological data for tackling the problem of crop production. In other chapters crop growth modelling, climate change, micrometeorology, weather modification and remote sensing have been discussed. This book is undoubtedly essential for students of Agricultural Sciences, Environmental Scientists, Agro-meteorologists and Progressive farmers. (jacket). …

Hardcover. Condición: New. 1st Edition. Contents: 1. Weather- Agriculture History. 2. Weather Elements Measurement. 3. Weather Disasters Management. 4. Weather Erosion Remote Sensing Crop Growth Models. 5. Climate Change Agriculture. 6. Weather Health Crops Farmers. This is a unique book on operational agro meteorology. It has contents that explicitly state that: Weather is a non-monetary input in all agricultural operations. If weather based farming is done, the cost of cultivation of crops can be reduced at least by 10% and quality of the agricultural produce be improved by 2-3% Past 10 days weather is as important as 10 day forecast of weather, in developing weather based technologies and making farm management decisions Growing Degree Days are very much useful in predicting pests and helio- thermal units are highly useful in predicting diseases on crops. Reflecting on his teaching experience, research findings and extension activities the author provided a roadmap through this book for not only profitable agriculture in the odd events of weather disasters but also ways that enhance the prestige and dignity of the farmers.…
