Chat with ORTH

Ask ORTH about one of your plots, judge the answer, build on it in the same chat, and find what ORTH sends you.

Your farm and plots are in ORTH now. Everything you ask in Chat starts from them: the plot profile, the weather at your farm and your documents.

  1. 1

    Open Chat

    Chat is where you ask. Type in Ask ORTH, or tap a topic such as Crop Protection, Irrigation or Nutrition. Create a plan and Add Field Note start here too.

  2. 2

    Ask about one plot

    Pick the plot under the bar, then say what you see and what you need to decide: “Clementines on Mandarinos are starting to colour. When should we plan the first harvest pass, and which pests should we watch this month?”

  3. 3

    Read the answer

    ORTH reads the plot profile, the forecast and your documents, checks its sources and answers for that plot: a date, what to check first and what to watch. Tap the line above the answer to see the steps and sources it used.

  4. 4

    See how sure ORTH is

    Each answer ends with one to five stars for how sure ORTH is, and To firm it up: the data that would raise it, such as a maturity sample. Under the answer you can copy it, have it read aloud or rate it. Where ORTH used outside sources, Sources lists them.

  5. 5

    Keep the chat going

    If ORTH asks for more detail, answer in the same chat so it builds on what it already has. Ask for a table or a chart when numbers are easier to compare that way. Your chats stay under Recent chats, and New chat starts a fresh topic.

  6. 6

    Read your notifications

    ORTH also comes to you. Notifications collects farm-wide reports and insights per plot, filtered by plot or type, from the day after you create plots. The gear sets your language, time zone and a Farm brief via email, for one farm.

Tip. The answer used the forecast for your farm. To see it yourself, open the Map and tap the weather in the top corner: temperature, wind, rain, humidity and evapotranspiration, hour by hour.
