Farm Rainfall Tracking and Weekly Weather Forecast

Rainfall drives everything on a farm: crop yield, pasture growth, stocking rates and cash flow. P2PAgri lets you track each farm, see where your season sits and use rainfall data to inform your management decisions.

How Do I Record and Track Rainfall on My Farm?

Rainfall drives everything in Australian agriculture. P2PAgri's automated weather API provides decades of historical daily rainfall data for each farm location. Record rainfall by farm, view monthly statistics, and use rainfall data to inform your management decisions.

Record Rainfall by Farm

Enter rainfall data at the level that matters to your operation: Farm level (daily rainfall from your rain gauge). Rainfall data connects to your farm map.

Automated Weather Data

P2PAgri can pull historical and recent rainfall data automatically for your farm location using the Open-Meteo weather API. Set your location and let the system do the rest.

Monthly Rainfall Statistics & Water Use Efficiency

See monthly rainfall summaries and trends over time. Compare this year's monthly rainfall to the long-term average. Rainfall data feeds directly into P2PAgri's crop water use efficiency (WUE) calculator, one of the most important benchmarks for dryland farming.

Use Rainfall Data to Make Better Farm Business Decisions

P2PAgri is very user friendly and a great tool for running various scenarios such as crop rotations or rainfall totals before entering a new season. You can track your progress throughout the year and make price or yield adjustments as the season progresses. This provides great detail enabling farmers to evaluate their decisions and adjust accordingly.
