Let the rain fall down: New weather station integration now live

FarmIQ has recently released an integration with Harvest, meaning that you can now send weather data from Harvest to a weather station in FarmIQ. This makes it easy to build a reliable and accurate history of your farm's weather. 

FarmIQ can receive daily and hourly information for rainfall, temperature, soil temperature and soil moisture.  

This will be recorded in the history of each paddock the weather station is associated with, and you can use your Dashboard to see graphs of your current and historical weather data from the station's devices. 

Below are some examples of the kind of data you can capture with the new integration.

You can identify trends and outliers in air temperature, soil temperature and rainfall, to determine what the 'norm' is for your farm and how that could affect pasture growth and quality.
