Climate and plants

• In the midst of the ecological conditions

climate occupies a conspicuous and very

peculiar place.

• With the advance of agriculture so has

progressed the recognition of the fact that

weather and climate dictate the success of

failure of the planting/sowing season

 Analysis of the climatic changes and the

agricultural ecology

By looking at the meteorological data andthe climatic analysis from the ecologicalperspective one is to notice that: :

• There is a marked insufficiency of measuringstations on the meteorological indicators

• The establishment of the measuring stationsdoes not respond well to the agricultural interestand does not reflect upon the diversity of theterrain of the country.

What is requested?

• It is requested that a network consisting of

roughly 50-60 stations be established based on

the areas of agricultural interest;.

• The climatic data should be published in anautomated manner;

• These data serve as a tool to getting to know

and studying the climate and help monitor and

prevent the disease to plants;

The agro-meteoro log ical

indicators 

• Deficiency of air moisture : Temperature,

dew drop 

Potential evapo-transpiration : Temperature,dew drop, wind velocity 

• Soil dampness :  precipitations, ETP 

•Day/degree/increase : Temperature 

• Index of plant stress : Temperature, deficiency

of air moisture , wind velocity

Farmers in possession

of meteorologicalstations

Could their data be used

on-line?

Involvement of extension service

• Extension services should use far better the scientific

data concerning the weather forecasting and the

climatic changes.

• These products could be upgraded if GIS is beingused, along with the communication technologies,

the weather forecasting for specific areas etc;

• For all of the above there is a need for training on

extensions services and farmers alike;

Conclusions

• The agro-meteorological services should be improved in orderto respond to risks and climate uncertainties;

• An advanced system of data management.

• Suitable technologies ( GIS and communication technologies)

along with the use of agro-meteorological indicators.• Accurate weather forecasting and climate for agriculture;

• Information dissemination system suitable for farmers.
