Weather stations are absolutely critical tools required to provide data for disease and
crop management. HortPlus MetWatch
software can work with a variety of weather stations to interpret this data to provide
vital disease and crop management information.
You have a range of options available for acquiring this vital weather data.
In order of increasing cost, you can:
 | Lease access to the network of telephone-accessible weather stations throughout
New Zealand. More info... |

 | Purchase a Tiny Tag weather station. Not telephone-accessible. Either
download with a laptop computer or bring logger in to the office for downloading.
