Objectives RIMES shall assist DMH and the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation (MOAI) in implementing key recommendations of the 9th Monsoon Forum in Nay Pyi Taw in October 2012, in particular the development of tools to support users of weather and climate information:
An updated agro-ecological zone map for Myanmar, crop-weather calendars that take into consideration the climate pattern in the past decades,
Expert system for translating weather and climate information into potential impacts and management options,
Pilot Climate Risk Management Field Schools to introduce farmers to the use of science-based information in decision-making.
Upgrade of the country’s agro-meteorological network shall support these initiatives.

SESAME: Specialized Expert System for Agro Meteorological Early
warning)
A web based online platform to generate and disseminate agro-met bulletins based on short and medium range weather and climatic parameters http://agro.rimes.int/myanmar
Customized for two pilot sites of Dry Zone in Myanmar viz. Nyuang Oo and Monywa.
Built on two weather model input datasets ECMWF Deterministic Forecast with 10 days lead time
WRF Model data from RIMES with 3 days lead time
Capable of ingesting these two datasets and generate 10 days or decadal Agro-Met bulletins (email and fax) and 3 days short-term forecasts disseminated by SMS messages.
