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

It doesn't work well. Even couldn't sign up. Need improvement in the interface and indut credentials data.

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.

Error error, every time I trying to launch the app ,it's getting stuck on the opening screen. Didn't expect such poor performance from the developer of such essential service.
