The second important procurement and donation implemented within the LADY project refers to agrometeorological stations. Although the procurement of meteorological stations was originally planned within the project framework, the Development–Guarantee Fund of Brčko District of BiH expanded the concept in order to ensure additional practical benefits for agriculture, environmental monitoring and prevention as well, based on the request from District Government.
The agrometeorological stations will enable the collection of relevant local data such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind and other parameters important for monitoring climate conditions. In addition to supporting the core objectives of the LADY project related to climate resilience and disaster risk reduction, this equipment will also provide added value for the agricultural sector. The availability of accurate agrometeorological data can support early detection of conditions favourable for plant diseases, better planning of agricultural activities, more efficient use of resources and improved advisory support to farmers. In this way, the donation creates synergy between climate adaptation, risk prevention, environmental protection and sustainable local development.
Both donations demonstrate the concrete contribution of the LADY project to strengthening institutional capacities in Brčko District BiH. The support provided to Civil Protection improves the ability of local services to prepare for and respond to risks, while the agrometeorological stations introduce a broader preventive and developmental dimension by linking climate monitoring with agriculture, environmental management and early warning.
The activities also contribute to the visibility of the Programme and the donor by clearly showing how project funds are translated into practical benefits for local institutions and citizens. The public announcements emphasized the role of the LADY project, the donor support and the importance of cross-border cooperation in addressing common challenges related to climate change, disaster risk reduction and sustainable territorial development.
