The weather has a significant impact on crop growth. In the Indian agroecosystem information on the weather during a crop's growing season measured at the experimental site is scarce. We have compiled and harmonized meteorological data measured at the experimental sites for the rice crop from these theses from various Indian agricultural institutes. These theses are available as pdf at the Krishikosh repository (https://krishikosh.egranth.ac.in). This dataset is the first of its kind, providing weather data from several rice-growing regions. We are reporting data at 23 sites, a few of which have multiple growing seasons, therefore in total we have 42 datasets.
