E-Organics Works with Ghana Meteorological Services to Deploy and Validate Community-Level IoT Weather Monitoring

Published: January 2026

E-Organics collaborated with the Ghana Meteorological Services (GMET) as part of its climate-smart agriculture implementation, strengthening the collection and use of localized weather data to support smallholder farmers.

The engagement was led by Mr. Richmond Kwesi Obeng, who heads the department responsible for meteorological instrumentation, IoT-enabled weather stations, and climate data collection at GMET. He was accompanied by a technical team of three specialists who provided on-site support and validation during field activities.
The collaboration focused on the deployment, verification, and interpretation of weather monitoring infrastructure at community level. GMET’s technical team worked directly with E-Organics in the field to ensure that installed IoT weather stations and related devices were correctly positioned, functional, and aligned with national standards for meteorological data collection.
Beyond equipment validation, the engagement supported broader baseline data collection and farmer interactions. Together, the teams assessed how weather information is currently accessed by farmers, identified gaps in climate awareness, and explored practical ways to translate meteorological data into actionable farming advice.
A key outcome of the collaboration was strengthening trust and data credibility within participating communities. The presence of GMET’s technical leadership reinforced confidence in the accuracy and reliability of the climate information being collected and shared, while also aligning E-Organics’ platform with established meteorological frameworks.
Insights from this joint work are being integrated into E-Organics’ digital agriculture platform, supporting the delivery of weather-informed advisories that help farmers plan planting cycles, manage climate risks, and improve productivity under changing environmental conditions.
Through its collaboration with Ghana Meteorological Services and the leadership of Mr. Richmond Kwesi Obeng and his team, E-Organics continues to build a robust, institutionally grounded approach to climate-smart agriculture that combines technology, data integrity, and community engagement.
