Agrilever, an agritech firm based in the Philippines, has partnered with global weather intelligence firm Tomorrow.io to bring hyperlocal, the artificial intelligence (AI)-powered forecasting solutions to the country’s agricultural sector.
The partnership aims to help farmers better manage climate risks and improve productivity amid increasingly variable weather conditions, the duo said in a statement on Thursday.
It is noted the Philippines is among the countries most vulnerable to climate change.
GermanWatch’s latest Climate Risk Index ranked the Philippines as the 7th most affected country by climate-related extreme weather events over the past 30 years (1995–2024).
During that period, the country experienced 371 extreme weather events, causing 27,500 fatalities and over $35 billion in economic losses.
In November 2025 alone, the Department of Agriculture (DA) estimated PHP 743.8 million ($12.62 million) in agricultural damage caused by Typhoons Tino and Uwan, highlighting the urgent need for climate-resilient practices and effective forecasting tools.
As the local partner bringing Tomorrow.io’s technology to Philippine agriculture, Agrilever supported government agencies with real-time weather intelligence during recent typhoons.
Through its collaboration with Agrilever, Tomorrow.io developed localized weather intelligence reports for the Department of Agriculture and the National Irrigation Administration (NIA), which were subsequently distributed to other affected government agencies.
In recent months, Tomorrow.io also monitored and generated detailed reports on other major weather disturbances, including typhoons Nando, Opong, Paolo, Rami, Salome, Tino, and Uwan.
Agencies using Tomorrow.io’s localized app received early warnings on rainfall, wind speed, and flood risks, enabling faster responses, better asset protection, and more informed decisions before, during, and after severe weather events.
During Typhoon Uwan, Agrilever and Tomorrow.io provided weather reports covering all affected provinces in Luzon and the Visayas.
The Rice Irrigation System (RIS), part of NIA’s project, has been integrated into NIA’s operations, allowing regional units to anticipate field conditions affecting planting and water management.
Additionally, Agrilever delivered twenty automated daily reports through Tomorrow.io’s platform during Typhoon Nando, covering key points of interest across Regions 1, 2, and CAR, which were forecasted to be severely impacted.
Through Agrilever’s integration of Tomorrow.io data into the National Food Authority (NFA) system, the NFA can now monitor 331 warehouses nationwide with insight-based weather tracking, including daily weather risk assessments for 30 strategic warehouses.
Similarly, the Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM) receives 17 automated reports for priority locations, supporting more than 600 active users—mostly farmers accessing hyperlocal forecasts via mobile devices.
These partnerships allow national and local agencies, as well as their constituents, to benefit from daily weather intelligence across all regions, anticipate disruptions earlier, and plan field operations with greater accuracy.
It is noted that local governments are also using Agrilever’s localized weather system for on-the-ground planning.
In Madalag, Aklan, the barangay disseminated forecasted rainfall and wind speed from Tomorrow.io and the Tigbawan Diversion Dam AgroClimatic Weather Station ahead of November 3–4, helping farmers make timely preparations before heavy rain and strong winds arrived.
Agrilever’s integrated farmer platform provides real-time, hyperlocal insights powered by Tomorrow.io’s forecasting system.
The platform consolidates digital crop protocols, weather intelligence, and access to financing tools, giving farmers the information and support they need to make timely field decisions.
“Our partnership with Tomorrow.io strengthens our commitment to protecting Filipino farmers, especially when typhoons and sudden weather shifts threaten their livelihoods,” said Ruel Amparo, President of Agrilever, representing both companies.
“By integrating advanced, hyperlocal weather intelligence into Agrilever’s platform, we are giving farmers the ability to prepare earlier, make faster and more informed decisions, and safeguard their crops even during extreme conditions. When farmers have timely and reliable information, they are better equipped to withstand disasters and recover faster,
“That is the kind of progress this collaboration makes possible for our communities,” he added.
The Agrilever–Tomorrow.io partnership is part of a broader effort to integrate climate-adaptive technologies into Philippine agriculture.
As more farmers gain access to real-time, location-specific weather intelligence, stakeholders anticipate more resilient harvests, reduced losses, and improved long-term planning across vulnerable farming communities, said the statement.
