Vegalogue is a regular podcast from vegetable, potato and onion industry peak body AUSVEG, where we examine the pressing issues and latest developments in our sector.

In the aftermath of any weather event, if you talk to five growers in a given region, you’ll get six different weather reports.

General weather forecasts rarely provide the local accuracy needed to make crucial farming decisions. Recognising that shortcoming is a levy funded project started earlier this year that applies AI to the task of hyper-local weather forecasting.

The project, Using AI and machine learning to improve weather forecasting, is being delivered by Jane’s Weather, a business founded by meteorologist Jane Bunn, who you may recognise as the weather forecaster and presenter at 7NEWS Melbourne.

Jane and her colleague Josh Cross gave growers a run-down of how hyper-local weather forecasting works and what it lets growers do in a recent webinar run by AUSVEG. The webinar and the work presented by Jane's Weather were part of the Building Capacity and Resilience within the NSW Vegetable Industry project.

The Building Capacity and Resilience within the NSW Vegetable Industry project is funded by the Australian and NSW Government’s Storm and Flood Industry Recovery Program with support from AUSVEG. The project is coordinated by Marguerite White of ICD Project Services for AUSVEG.

Vegalogue is the podcast from AUSVEG, the peak body for Australia’s vegetable, potato, and onion industries, where we examine the pressing issues and latest developments in our sector.
