Automatic Weather Station in Tarlac
Tarlac Mill District was very privileged to accept the AWS entrusted by SRA. The said equipment (Davis Vantage Pro II) aims to collect data that will aid in the analysis of the climatic condition that affects the growth of sugarcane in the district . Rainfall, wind-speed, ET, Solar Radiation, Humidity, and other pertinent data will be recorded and analyzed. The expected output is to establish growth coefficients that will produce a sort of crop simulation system in order to predict the yield and performance of the coming crop and take advantage the opportunities where exceptional growth might be achieved.Well it may take some time but as a start, "We" are preparing to achieve our goal.

I am interested to look at meteorological data of the milling district and then compare and contrast it with our cane yields here at Concepcion, Tarlac. How do I obtain a copy of all available meteorological data since 2005?
