| dc.description.abstract | Agriculture activities are very depending on climate condition. The failure of crops to produce good yield is very often due to bad climate. Capability of farmers to use climate forecast to anticipate the events is very limited. On the other hand, climate forecast information issued by Meteorology Bureau is not informative due to low level of understanding of the users (local authorities, extension workers, and farmers) to the terminology used and also their ability to use climate (forecast) information for supporting farming activities. In many cases the end users will seek the information and use it when it will give benefit. Therefore, developing effective method for communicating climate (forecast) information to the end-users is important. | id |
