| Summary: | Agrometeorology can be summed up as being a critical node where meteorological science meets the agricultural sector. It is highly important in bringing adaptation tools and strategies to the farmers' realm in response to climate-related challenges. Agrometeorology discusses impacts from extreme weather events as well as the resource constraints in relation to the climatic changes through the center of early warning and climate-resilient agriculture. This paper focuses on the role of agrometeorology in reducing the adverse effects of climate change on farming through tools such as remote sensing, agroclimatic zoning, and advanced models. Case studies from India will demonstrate practical applications and transformative potential for agrometeorological services in developing sustainable, climate-smart agricultural systems. Several integration challenges, such as data gaps, infrastructure deficiencies, and lack of farmer awareness on integrating AI technologies that promise a revolution in precision farming, are high. This underlines the use of a multi-disciplinary approach, with appropriate robust policies and technologies, toward building agricultural resilience to a changing climate.
