Reference ranges change with phenological stage and variety. Reading a leaf analysis against the wrong table leads to the wrong correction.

  1. Extracts every parameter from the report.
  2. Uses the right reference range for your crop, variety and stage.
  3. Explains deficiencies, excesses and antagonisms.
  4. Recommends foliar or soil corrections with timing.

scouting-thresholds-alertsScouting thresholds and alertsSet an action threshold per pest and plot. When scouting crosses it, ORTH tells you and proposes the action.Set an alert for red spider mite on all table grape plots: threshold 3 mites per leaf. When scouting exceeds it, notify me and propose treatment options.Intervene at threshold, not at damageYield protectedMulti-step workflowIn validation11scoutingScouting & field notesagronomist,field-worker

Scouting data is collected and filed. Nobody compares this week's counts to the threshold until the damage is visible.

  1. You define the pest, the unit and the threshold per plot.
  2. Scouts log counts as field notes.
  3. ORTH tracks the trend and alerts when the threshold is crossed.
  4. It proposes the intervention and creates the action.
  • Plots created in ORTH
  • Scouting notes with counts

Trend per plot, an alert when the threshold is crossed, and a proposed action with product options.

What is the most likely root cause and what deviated from protocol?Fewer claims, faster answers to growersRisk avoidedMulti-step workflowIn validation10reportsReports & analysisblueberrynursery

A nursery licenses plants to growers. When plants fail, support staff visit each site to gather records by hand. Each event can cost up to a million dollars in lost crop value and damaged relationships, twenty times a year per market.

  1. Ingests the nursery's protocol into the knowledge library.
  2. Reads the grower's operational records: irrigation, nutrition, pests, mechanical operations, pruning.
  3. Compares what was done against the protocol and the phenological timeline.
  4. Ranks probable root causes with evidence.
  5. Recommends preventive changes for the next cycle.
  • Nursery protocol (PDF)
  • Grower's operational records (spreadsheets or photos)
  • Dates and phenological stage of the event

A ranked root-cause analysis with the evidence for each hypothesis, protocol deviations found, and preventive recommendations.

Plans are written once and never reconciled with what actually happened in the field. Nobody knows if the plan was followed or if it worked.

  1. Creates the nutrition plan for the plot.
  2. Turns each application into an action assigned to a team member with a date.
  3. The worker marks it done and logs notes or photos.
  4. You ask ORTH to update the analysis using what was executed and observed.
  5. Charts and reports show plan versus reality.
  • A plan saved in ORTH
  • Team members invited to the account

An action list with owners and dates, completion logs, and an updated analysis comparing planned versus executed.

Water is scarce and expensive. Growers either irrigate to be safe and waste it, or cut without knowing which stages tolerate stress.

  1. Takes your variety, planting density, soil and system.
  2. Sets water needs per phenological stage using local ET and rainfall.
  3. Identifies the stages where regulated deficit is safe and where it is not.
  4. Gives you a season strategy and weekly targets you can adjust.
  • Variety, density and irrigation system
  • Water allocation for the season
  • Optional: soil analysis, probe data

A stage-by-stage irrigation strategy with weekly volumes, stress thresholds and the expected effect on yield and oil quality.

Should we spray for black Sigatoka, and with what, considering our product rotation?Fewer applications, no late spraysYield protectedMulti-step workflowIn validation7crop-protectionCrop protectionbananaagronomist,farm-manager

Sigatoka pressure depends on humidity windows and leaf-stage counts. Spraying by calendar wastes money; spraying late loses leaves and yield.

  1. Watches humidity and leaf wetness for your plots.
  2. Alerts you when conditions enter the risk window.
  3. Combines the alert with your latest leaf-count scouting.
  4. Recommends spray or wait, and which product given rotation and MRLs.
  • Plots with location
  • Weekly leaf-count scouting
  • Product rotation history

A spray or wait recommendation per lot with the reasoning, product options and timing.
