Nutrition · Use case

Feed the crop on its demand.

ORTH reads the lab report in minutes, drafts the feeding plan for the stage the crop is in, and puts the fertigation on the irrigation you already run.

Analyses arrive in different laboratory formats. Someone reads each one against the critical ranges by hand, converts it into rates, sources and dates, and re-types the values into a spreadsheet. A transcription error stays hidden until a plan is built on it.

Then the programme is fixed for the season while demand shifts week to week. ORTH drafts for the stage the crop is in now.

What ORTH does

From the lab report to the feed, with the working shown.

Six things ORTH does between the analysis landing and the fertigation running.

Reads the analysis, in any format

Soil, leaf, water and substrate analyses upload as they arrive. ORTH converts every value to one convention and flags what does not add up: a different extractant, potassium reported as K where the last report said K₂O.

A nutrient budget by stage

Demand for nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium and the micronutrients changes with the stage. ORTH sizes the budget for the stage the plot is in now, nets off what the soil analysis says is already available, and splits it by week.

The fertigation programme on your irrigation

Rates become a fertigation programme on the water you already run: products from your own register, tank order, injection per shift, split by month and by source. The agronomist corrects and signs.

Deficiency told apart from stress

A photo of yellowing leaves is read against the block’s irrigation, weather and fertigation history. Iron, magnesium, nitrogen, waterlogging and root damage look alike from the row. ORTH names the likely cause and the tissue test that confirms it.

Your product register and your protocol

Only products you are registered to use in that country are recommended. Your protocol’s limits sit behind every rate. Ask for an alternative formulation against the same target and ORTH returns the purchasing comparison.

Uptake, timing and the money

Nitrogen applied at the wrong time leaches past the roots. ORTH times each dose to demand and to the irrigation so more of what you buy reaches the crop, and puts the cost of each dose next to it.

How it runs

Every lab report read in minutes, from upload to the feed.

ORTH drafts. The agronomist corrects and signs. Every number stays on the plot it came from.

01

Upload the analysis as it arrives

Upload soil, leaf, water or substrate analyses in whatever layout the laboratory uses. ORTH converts them to one convention and flags what does not add up: a different extractant, potassium reported as K where the last report said K₂O.

02

ORTH reads it against the block

ORTH reads the values against the crop, variety, stage, planting date and the last seasons of applications on that plot, all on one stated unit basis.

03

ORTH drafts the feeding plan

ORTH returns the nutrient balance and a feeding plan for the crop’s current stage: rates, products from your own register, timing, split by month and by source. The agronomist corrects and signs.

04

Compare before you buy

Ask ORTH for an alternative formulation against the same target. It checks the products you are registered to use in that country and returns a purchasing comparison in minutes.

05

Catch the deficiency from the row

Send a photo of yellowing leaves. ORTH returns the likely cause, worked out against the block’s irrigation, weather and fertigation history, and names the tissue test to confirm it. Magnesium deficiency and drought stress look alike from the row; the block’s history tells them apart.

What it is worth

Days of planning, back in the season.

Nutrition is the job growers bring to ORTH most often: 62% of surveyed growers use it for nutrition and fertilisation, in every market surveyed.

Days back

A nutrition-planning cycle across a whole group, from the analyses landing to the plans signed, closes days sooner. The agronomist corrects drafts instead of composing plans.

A fifth

The size of the ordering error when potassium is read as potash. ORTH catches the unit at upload, before a plan is built on it.

The first fix is the right one

A yellowing block has many possible causes and the corrections contradict each other. ORTH runs the elimination against the block’s record before a product goes on, and writes the resolved case to the block for next time.

Example

Yellow leaves, and the order they get checked in.

A block is yellowing between the veins on the new growth. ORTH pulls the planting date, the last water and substrate analyses, the fertigation record and the fortnight’s weather. It rules out waterlogging on the moisture readings, puts iron lock-up at the block’s pH first, names the tissue test to confirm it, and drafts the corrective dose from your register with the pH correction that stops it recurring.

Ask ORTH

What growers ask ORTH about nutrition.

Typed or spoken from the row, in your language. Answered from your plots, your weather, your analyses and your protocol, with the working shown.

Request a demo
“Here is the leaf analysis. What do I change in next week’s fertigation?”
“Yellowing on the young leaves in block 3, photo attached. Iron or nitrogen?”
“How much potassium do the grapes need from now to harvest, and in how many doses?”
“Compare these two calcium products for the same target. Which is cheaper per unit of calcium?”
“The lab reports K₂O and our plan uses K. Convert it.”
“Build the first-season fertigation programme for the new blueberry block.”
