The Yagotyn meteorological station was organized in 1924, and its database was created in 1943. It is a part of the main observation network and the data obtained there is exchanged internationally and between countries.
Observations at the station are carried out regularly in 8 periods. They include: air temperature and humidity, soil surface temperature, atmospheric pressure, precipitation, cloud cover, maximum wind speed, average wind speed and direction, atmospheric phenomena, visibility range, soil temperature at depths of 5, 10, 15, 20 cm (in the warm season). Observations are also made on the height and density of the snow cover, water reserves in the snow, ice crust and ice and frost phenomena, and groundwater levels.
Since May 1, 2014, observations of precipitation intensity have been discontinued.
Since December 14, 2020, observations of air temperature and humidity, soil temperature and at depths of 5, 10, 15 and 20 cm in the bare area have been carried out using electronic sensors.
Soil samples are taken annually to determine the residual amount of pesticides.
In the agrometeorological section of the work, the station monitors the main crops sown on the farm of Yagotynska Agrofirma LLC. Observations are made of the developmental stages of winter wheat, corn, soybeans, as well as cabbage, tomatoes, potatoes, fruit trees (apple, pear, cherry, apricot), and mountain ash. Observations of sugar beet have been discontinued since 2008.
Moisture reserves are determined under winter wheat, spring barley, corn, soybeans, and in the fall and spring, additional moisture reserves are determined for winter rye. We also monitor the moisture content of the topsoil, weed infestation, measure crop height and density, assess crop condition, and determine damage to crops caused by weather conditions, diseases, and pests. The elements of productivity and the structure of the grain harvest are determined. Agrometeorological forecasts are made: moisture reserves at the beginning of spring field work, flowering of fruit crops, timing of corn panicle ejection, maturity of early spring crops, maturity of winter crops, timing of milky-wax ripeness of corn grain, and average regional winter crop yields. Winter and perennial grasses are surveyed in the fall, spring and winter. We measure the temperature at the depth of the tillering node of winter crops, soil freezing, snow depth, density, and the presence of ice crust on the field with winter crops.
Based on the observations of the meteorological station, the Department of Agriculture draws up a comprehensive schedule of meteorological elements (average air temperature for the ten-day period and the amount of precipitation and moisture reserves in the soil under winter crops) in the weather display, and issues a ten-day bulletin.
Based on the observations of the meteorological station, the weather department in the weather showcase draws up a comprehensive schedule of meteorological elements (average air temperature for the ten-day period and the amount of precipitation and moisture reserves in the soil under winter crops), and issues a ten-day bulletin.
When weather conditions deteriorate, the station's employees send storm telegrams to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center.
