ABSTRACT The aim of the article is to consider the development of decision support based on the use of hydrometeorological information in the activities of agricultural enterprises. Agriculture is increasingly dependent on weather and climate change, making adaptation to weather conditions increasingly important. The article considers problems of using the issued hydrometeorological information for the needs of agriculture, methodological foundations of adaptation of agriculture to natural conditions. The use of damage assessment models in the form of assessments of possible impacts of natural hazards on the activities of agricultural producers, calculations of damage from natural hazards and the cost of preventive actions is shown. A methodology for creating a decision-making support system for organizing the adaptation of agriculture to natural hazards and climate change is proposed. An example of a description of the agricultural situation “Damping off” is given, which occurs in autumn-winter-spring periods. Experimental knowledge base of local threshold values of natural hazard indicators in agriculture and a database of the impact of natural hazards on the activities of agricultural enterprises and recommendations for decision-making before, during and after the natural hazard at three levels of dangerous are created. Informing agricultural producers about agrometeorological conditions should be based on identifying natural hazards for a specific type of activity or the state of grain growth. Because of implementing such a technology for hydrometeorological support of agricultural producers, the awareness of enterprise managers will increase due to the prompt provision of data, their compact visualization and providing impact forecasts and recommendations. |
