This project aims to develop a mobile-based weather alert application tailored specifically for small-scale farmers. Unpredictable weather patterns pose significant risks to agricultural activities, especially for farmers who rely on timely information to make critical decisions such as planting, harvesting, and protecting crops. Currently, many small farmers lack access to accurate and timely weather forecasts, leading to reduced productivity and crop losses. The proposed application, AgriAlert, will provide real-time weather updates, forecasts, and severe weather warnings directly to the farmer’s mobile device. The app will use location-based services to deliver relevant alerts and notifications in the local language, ensuring accessibility and ease of use. By integrating a user-friendly interface and push notification system, the project aims to empower farmers with the necessary information to mitigate risks, plan effectively, and increase agricultural resilience. Additionally, user feedback and interviews will guide the development process to ensure the app meets the actual needs of its target users
