This study designed a framework to assist farmers increase their productivity by receiving weather information through decision support system. The system has been developed to keep track of weather information related to agriculture. With the growing population and demands to improve crop productivity; there is the need to make available sustainable resource practice that serves better both the communities and the nation. In satisfying this need, a web-based application which contains informative and insightful agricultural tutelages was developed to aid decision making in agro-processing, stimulate the farmer's climate information and provide useful information required to enhance crop productivity, especially in the rural areas.
