Our verdict on WeatherAPI Agriculture API
WeatherAPI Agriculture API provides location-based agricultural indicators for teams building farm software and other API-driven workflows. Its data includes growing degree days, rainfall, reference evapotranspiration, crop water-use estimates, water balance, chill hours, frost and heat-stress hours, leaf wetness, disease risk, potato blight risk periods, and spray windows. Forecasts extend up to 14 days, with hourly data for the first five days and three-hourly data thereafter. Requests can use latitude and longitude, crop presets, custom temperature thresholds, and a season start date for season-to-date totals.
A key purchasing distinction is that the general WeatherAPI.com Free plan does not include the Agriculture endpoint. According to the published plans, Agriculture API access starts with Business, priced at $65 per month or $702 per year; Enterprise also includes access. The listed Free plan provides 100,000 calls per month, while Starter is $7 monthly or $75.60 annually for 3 million calls, and Pro+ is $25 monthly or $270 annually for 5 million calls. Those lower tiers do not include the Agriculture API. A seven-day free trial is also listed. Buyers should therefore assess the agriculture-specific Business threshold rather than treat the general free tier or lower API plans as access to these indicators.
The API’s breadth is useful for applications that need to combine crop development, water estimates, disease risk, and operational timing in location-based requests. Hourly spray windows include Delta-T, while frost and disease are presented as indicators rather than described push alerts. This is a fit for developers who can consume API responses and want agricultural signals in JSON or XML. It is less suitable for farm teams seeking a standalone interface or station-based workflow; the product is API-only. Consider it when the Business plan fits the budget and the integration is part of the intended workflow.
