About this app

Meghdoot, a joint initiative of India Meteorological Department (IMD), Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) and Indian Council OF Agricultural Research (ICAR) aims to deliver critical information to farmers through a simple and easy to use mobile application. The mobile application was developed by the Digital Agriculture research theme at International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Hyderabad in collaboration with IITM, Pune and IMD, Delhi. The app seamlessly aggregates contextualised district and crop wise advisories issued by Agro Met Field Units (AMFU) every Tuesday and Friday with the forecast and historic weather information to the fingertips of the farmers. The advisories are also issued in vernacular wherever available.

Ratings and reviews

Slow and bad user interface. Looks like they're trying to give you feeling of standing in queue for no reason like in a sarkari office. And then it's giving for whole district not specific town where you live (remember to wait for few minutes to get there as it loads forever). Not good for daily weather prediction. Just copying any good weather prediction app or top google results would have produced better results.

Location wise advice are either absent or inadequate. Needs a lot of improvement. Hourly report of weather not given any thought. The latest version needs to include all this You collect data from users but don't share much info on how to benefit from the weather conditions through profitable Agriculture. So either Improve the App or vanish!

Worst app. Slow and non user friendly. Nit able to choose ans save correct location. There are many other apps with accurate and user-friendly experience. Don't waste public money to build such useless apps. Uninstalling.
