Frost and Heat Alert Action Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A frost warning is only useful if somebody acts before the temperature drops. This agent reads the forecast for each field and compares it with the crop stage, because the same low temperature harms a flowering orchard more than a dormant one. It lists the actions that fit, such as running irrigation, laying covers, lighting heaters or moving animals. It schedules the tasks and assigns them to workers. After the event it reads the actual overnight temperatures and checks whether the actions were enough, and records any damage. The farmer approves the action list. Edge case: a forecast low that is close to the crop's limit triggers actions even if the margin is small.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It acts when the forecast comes within a margin of the crop's damage threshold at its current stage.

  • Act when the forecast is within 2 degrees of the damage threshold
  • Use stricter thresholds for flowering and fruit set
  • Start irrigation protection before the temperature reaches freezing
  • Record any damage seen the next morning

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Margin to the damage threshold (default 2 degrees)
  • Thresholds by crop stage
  • Actions available on the farm
  • Who is assigned tasks

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Farmer approves the action list

Hard limits

  • Never start equipment on its own
  • Never ignore a forecast within the margin

It stops when

  • Done: actions are complete and results recorded
  • Stop: the farmer cancels the actions

An example run

What happensThe forecast shows -1 C for the orchard at full bloom, where the limit is -2 C. That is within the 2 degree margin. The agent proposes irrigation from 2 am and covers on the early block. The farmer approves. The recorded low is -2.4 C in the low corner. The agent notes damage there and adds heaters for the next night.
