Generally the Iska weather alerts massages has helped me plan for every day in the past two seasons and hoping to see more of your intervention and making it local for those who can not read to recieve directly like a voice recorder.

Nankene Jaadi Yahaya

The weather alert has really been helpful to me and its accuracy is 95%. It helps me know when to sow my seeds, this is because previously when we were not recieving the weather information, we go out to sow and if the rains delay, the birds picked the seeds out of the hole which costs us money.

Nmanli Dawuda Gbereh
