Collect local weather measurements with a HOBO MicroRX station configured for your monitoring program. For NEWA applications, select a compatible RX2106 configuration and the sensors required by the crop and pest models you intend to use.

Use temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, and leaf-wetness measurements alongside other required weather inputs to support risk assessment and scouting decisions. Configure the station’s data feed and complete the NEWA connection process before relying on model outputs.

Review the NEWA partner information for configuration guidance. Select suitable station power, cellular reception, and an RX data plan for remote access.

Make your monitoring data easier to understand and act on with LI-COR Cloud, formerly HOBOlink. Bring measurements from compatible HOBO monitoring systems into customizable dashboards to review field conditions remotely, identify trends, and inform crop protection and irrigation decisions.

• Compare conditions across your farm. View measurements from multiple monitoring locations to identify differences in temperature, humidity, leaf wetness, and soil moisture.
• Understand changing conditions. Review graphs alongside rainfall and other measurements to investigate weather patterns, wet periods, and irrigation response.
• Stay informed between field visits. Configure email or text notifications when monitored conditions reach your selected thresholds, helping you prioritize follow-up.
• Put your data to work. Export records for further analysis, share findings with your team, and connect compatible station data to NEWA’s crop, disease, and insect models.

Combine local measurements, model results, and field observations to make better-informed decisions about scouting, irrigation, and crop management.
