BENEFITS OF WEATHER STATIONS
Local weather conditions have a significant impact on many phases of the farming operation:
• Pesticide costs can be reduced with proper management of insects and diseases.
• Irrigation management to reduce costs and reserve water sources.
• Planting new varieties can be maximized when having on-farm knowledge of a variety’s ability to yield in a particular location (chilling degrees, windy area, frost…)
• Global changes in weather patterns make it imperative to have localized information for use in planning crop production strategies.

Disease Models for Wheat Overview Puccinia tritici infections are taking place after for hours of leaf wetness at optimum temperature conditions. The fungus can infect over a wide range of temperatures. The model assumes that infection needs 90°C*hours of leaf wetness in a range from 5°C to 30°C. Puccinia gramminis prefers a little higher temperatures and the infection has to be followed by sunlight. Whereas Puccinia stritiformis is the wheat rust of cool climates having its optimum temperature already from 15°C on.
Puccinia tritici• Leaf wetness
for 90°C*h (if T <= 22.5°C then ∑(Th) else ∑ (22.5-(Th-22.5))
• 5°C < Temp. < 30°C
Puccinia stritiformis
• Leaf wetness for 80°C*h (if T <= 15°C then ∑(Th) else ∑ (15-(Th-15))
• 5°C < Temp. < 20°C
• No infections in times with low light intentions
Puccinia gramminis
• Leaf wetness for 80°C*h following by a light period (150 W/m²) for 30°C*h (if T <= 24°C then ∑(Th) else ∑ (24-(Th-24))
• 10°C < Temp. < 35°C

Rust Infection Progress Curves calculated with weather data from station 10FE
In the infection at April 3rd has started after a day with intense light. Whereas the infection of P.tritici and P.gramminis at April 4th as during a relative dark period. By this reason no infection
was calculated for P.stritiformis
