Disease risk map

This Disease risk map allows users to identify the likelihood of plant disease infection in different zones in a field. Disease risk is estimated based on current leaf area index (or dry matter), soil productivity map and field topography. Disease risk scores are comparable across multiple fields with the same crop species within a given region. The differences are stated as a percentage.

Main advantages:

- Detection of risky areas in fields for more efficient control of whether damage thresholds have been reached

- Regardless of the harvest

- Estimate the total amount of fungicide needed for the application

- Basis for variable dosage fungicide applications – effective treatment while respecting environmental regulations.
