What is Meteobot?
Meteobot® is an automatic weather station that reports real-time weather and soil conditions on your fields for precision farming.
It uses European and U.S. sensors with top accuracy and no calibration needs. The station works year-round via a solar panel and battery, sending data over mobile internet.
The Meteobot® App gives you a 10-day forecast plus historical weather data for any location so you can plan operations based on actual field conditions.
Meteobot® is available in these versions:
Weather stations
Meteobot® Nano Weather Station
Compact node that keeps real-time soil moisture and temperature under control right in the field.

Meteobot® Pro Weather Station
Meteobot Pro is a professional station delivering a complete set of agrometeorological insights.
Details →Optional sensors
You can add the following sensors to any station:
- Leaf wetness sensor
- Solar radiation sensor
- Wind direction sensor (with wind speed option)
- Wet-bulb temperature sensor
- Soil temperature sensor for deeper layers
- Soil moisture sensor for deeper layers
- Volumetric soil water content sensor
Meteobot® supports up to three soil temperature and moisture sensors installed at different depths (e.g., 30, 60, 90 cm), so you track both surface and deeper layers that supply moisture during drought.

How Meteobot® helps
The app and sensor network answer critical field questions:
Rainfall:
- Did it rain and how much?
- Is the soil waterlogged, can machinery enter?
- Are plants dry enough for spraying or harvest?
- How much rain fell since the beginning of the year?
- When was the last rainfall?
- Was moisture sufficient in key growth stages?
- Is there erosion risk from heavy downpours?
Soil temperature:
- What is the daily average and is it suitable for spring sowing?
- Is the soil frozen, can you apply fertilizers?
- Is there a risk of nitrogen loss through denitrification?
- Is the temperature adequate for germination and emergence?
- What is the temperature at 2–5 cm, is there a frost risk?
Soil moisture:
- How much water actually infiltrated and how deep?
- Is moisture at 5–10 cm sufficient for planting and emergence?
- Is there enough water for nitrogen uptake?
- What is the moisture reserve in shallow and deep layers?
- Do you need irrigation?
Air temperature:
- What is the recent average temperature?
- Is there frost or hoarfrost risk?
- Is it safe to spray?
- Are disease conditions present?
- What is the current growing-degree total?
- When does vegetative growth kick off in spring?
- Did wheat get enough hardening in autumn?
Wind:
- Is wind speed acceptable for spraying?
- Are conditions right for flowering and pollination?
Air humidity:
- Is there a disease threat?
- Are humidity levels favorable for flowering and pollination?
Leaf wetness:
- Is disease pressure building up?
- Is it a good moment for spraying?
If you ask at least three of these questions regularly, Meteobot® becomes a reliable partner for managing your agronomic decisions.
