In agrometeorological, teaching and research, meteorological data play very important role and applications. Though, practical manuals of agrometeorology are published by many organisations but they are lacking in materials, lucid presentation and good photographs of instrumets. Agriculture students are not finding their course materials in one book. Hence a practical book on agrometeorology is very much needed, after fourth Dean committee reports, for undergraduate agricultural students. The present book of practical agrometeorology is prepared, which provides materials on all aspect of practical agrometeorology of data acquisition techniques, instruements and method of observation with precautions.
Agriculture encounters a complex dynamic system of natural conditions. The meteorological factors among these natural conditions play a pivotal role so far as agriculture is concerned. The rate of growth and development of a bio-system is largely depending upon its ambient temperature and moisture. The plant productivity per unit are, total production, quality of the produce, operational efficiency as well as econometrics are solely governed by the meteorological parameters. Therefore, their throught understanding including the computation and the measurement techniques is absolutely essential. It is no less important to have sufficient workable information on weather phenomena as well as climatic resources to determine realizable potential and an appropirate solution for a number of problems faced in agriculture.
