Experimental weather network could boost farm efficiency nationwide
Washington reports two federal agencies plan to expand an experimental volunteer weather reporting network. The system uses touchtone phones to relay local temperature and rainfall data to a central center, enabling precise forecasts to guide irrigation, fertilization, pest control, and harvest timing. Expansion regions include California's San Joaquin Valley and parts of Colorado, Washington, Michigan, Delaware, and Virginia, with a nationwide rollout possible as early as 1973.
