Agrometeorological Research Braunschweig The activities of the German Weather Service in the field of agroclimatology • Conclusions and outlook * The variety of agroclimatological topics covers the annual cycle from spring over summer and autumn into winter. * The applications in agrometeorology prove numerous, and combinations of elements deliver a very useful output as advice for agriculture. * The frequencies, mean, extremes and deviation of agroclimatic elements produce valuable insights for risk management. * Objective model output allows for a quick evaluation of a current situation. * Agroclimatic trend analyses serve for climate change impact research. * The future importance of agroclimatology is growing due to: - better recommendations from better models and growing data base, - more frequent inquiries from farmers, organisations and government.
Agrometeorological Research Braunschweig The activities of the German Weather Service in the field of agroclimatology Summary Agroclimatology: useful advisory instrument giving information to farmers, agricultural organisations and agrometeorologists. Wide variety of fields in agroclimatology with many combinations: crop conditions and microclimate, soil conditions, yield and quality, warnings and risks, pests and diseases, phenology. Advantages: better planning, risk assessment, statements for a region, evaluation of a current situation, better preparedness for adverse situations, climate impact research, model testing. Perspectives: growing quality of and need for agroclimate information.
