Disease Management

What is it?

Disease Management by Semios is a highly advanced, predictive analytics platform that utilizes in-canopy sensor data to generate highly accurate disease models and automated alerts for targeted crop protection.

Applying expensive fungicides based on rigid calendar schedules is a massive financial drain and highly ecologically damaging. If a farmer sprays too early, the chemical degrades before the disease hits; if they spray too late, the crop is already infected. This continuous, blind application also drastically accelerates dangerous fungicide resistance. Semios completely modernizes this workflow by generating highly specific, localized disease models. By collecting critical environmental data directly from in-canopy sensors, the platform accurately forecasts the exact risk of devastating outbreaks, such as Alternaria, powdery mildew, and fire blight. It pushes automated alerts directly to the farmer's phone, allowing them to perfectly time and target their chemical sprays.

Why use it?

Transitioning to an alert-driven, predictive disease management platform empowers farmers to completely avoid wasting money on ineffective, poorly timed sprays. By utilizing disease models tailored explicitly to the microclimate of their specific orchard, managers can time their applications for absolute optimum treatment results. This highly targeted approach not only secures the maximum yield quality but also heavily reduces the terrifying risk of developing localized fungicide resistance. Ultimately, by analysing historical disease trends and forecasting future outbreaks based on site history and regional weather, the platform ensures that the entire farm remains highly proactive, deeply protected, and fiercely profitable.

Key Features

• Deploy Tailored Disease Models
  Utilises exact, per-acre environmental data collected directly from in-canopy sensors to build highly accurate disease models specifically tailored to the orchard.

• Optimise Spray Timing
  Provides the exact biological intelligence required to perfectly time and target chemical applications, ensuring absolute optimum treatment results.

• Predict Specific Outbreaks
  Generates highly specific forecasts for devastating agricultural threats, explicitly including Alternaria, almond rust, fire blight, and powdery mildew.

• Deliver Automatic Alerts
  Allows managers to set exact risk thresholds and receive immediate, automated disease outbreak alerts directly to their mobile phone or computer.

• Identify Historical Trends
  Analyses deep in-orchard conditions and specific site history to explicitly identify historical trends and accurately anticipate future disease progression.

• Prevent Fungicide Resistance
  Reduces unnecessary, broad-spectrum chemical dumping, directly mitigating the severe biological risk of developing highly dangerous fungicide resistance.
