Managing Rainfall Intensity for Smarter Crop Management

What is Rainfall Intensity?
Rainfall intensity is all about how fast rain falls over a certain period, usually measured in millimeters per hour. For growers, this matters because it directly impacts soil moisture, drainage, and the overall health of your crops. Heavy rain can cause runoff and erosion, while light rain might not be enough, meaning you’ll need to step in with extra irrigation.
How is Rainfall Intensity Measured?
We measure rainfall intensity using rain gauges or automated weather stations that give you real-time data. These tools track how much rain is falling over specific time intervals, so you can monitor patterns and adjust your irrigation and drainage plans accordingly.
How Can the Data Help You Make Better Decisions?
When you know the intensity of rainfall, it’s easier to decide whether to hold off on irrigation or add some water. If it’s pouring down with high-intensity rain, you might not need to water your crops for a while, but if the rain is light, that’s your cue to step in. This kind of precise, data-driven approach helps you conserve water, keep your plants healthy, and avoid over-watering or under-watering.
