Its key purposes include:
Monitoring local weather patterns such as temperature, humidity, rainfall, and wind direction.

Providing meteorological data to aid farming decisions and research.

Offering practical exposure for students studying geography, integrated science, agricultural education, and environmental science.

Supporting climate-smart agriculture practices through data collection and interpretation.

Serving as a teaching and learning aid for both theoretical and practical components of weather and environmental studies.

FACILITIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE

The Weather Info Farm is equipped with the following:
Weather Station Instruments: Includes rain gauges, thermometers, barometers, anemometers, wind vanes, and hygrometers.

Mini Crop Demonstration Plots: Used to observe the effect of weather changes on plant growth.

Data Logging and Display Systems: For recording and analyzing weather trends over time.

Observation Platforms: For hands-on practical training for students and researchers.

Shaded Working Area: For note-taking, sketching weather instruments, and conducting simple experiments.

These facilities are strategically located in an open and accessible area within the college for unobstructed exposure to atmospheric elements.
