Plan the season before it plants.
The season plan drafted per plot from your variety, planting date and protocol, adjusted as the season runs, and every decision kept on the plot for next year.
The crop calendar is right on day one. Then planting slips, heat speeds up development and rain closes a field.
The programme sits in a notebook, a chat thread and one person’s head. Applications are typed into a spreadsheet afterwards. ORTH drafts the plan per plot, adjusts it with the season and records every application on the block.
The season planned per plot and moved with the weather.
Six things ORTH does with the calendar across the season.
The plot set up with what decides the season
Variety, rootstock, planting system, planting or pruning date, target market and your protocol, per plot. ORTH plans from these and keeps them on the plot record for every season after.
A season calendar per plot
Nutrition, protection and irrigation drafted against the stage the crop will be in on each date, within the limits your protocol sets. A blueberry planting, a wheat rotation and a rose house each get their own calendar.
Stage tracked by accumulated heat
Development runs on temperature. ORTH moves the calendar as heat accumulates per plot, so a warm spring brings the flowering programme forward and a cold one holds it back.
The week’s work as assigned actions
Each week the calendar becomes actions with an owner and a date: the spray, the feed, the irrigation change, the scouting round. Done, partial or not done comes back with the reason.
Variety guidelines and protocols in the answer
Your variety guidelines, regional calendars and approved lists sit in the Knowledge base. Every plan and every answer is built from them. Revise a guideline once and every plot runs on the new one.
Next season starts from this one
What was applied, when, what the plot did and what it returned stay on the block. Next year’s plan starts from the record. A finding on one block is on record for all the others.
The plan drafted, adjusted, recorded and carried into the next season.
ORTH drafts the plan against your protocol, adjusts it as the season runs and keeps it on the plot record.
Set the season up
Enter variety, planting system, planting date, target and destination market per plot. Load your protocols and variety guidelines into the Knowledge base.
ORTH drafts the season plan
ORTH returns a season plan per plot: nutrition calendar, protection programme and irrigation, drafted for the crop stage on each date and the limits your protocol sets. It works the same for a blueberry planting, a wheat rotation or a rose house. Your agronomist corrects and signs.
ORTH adjusts the calendar as the season runs
As weather and stage data come in, ORTH adjusts the calendar. The week’s work goes out as assigned actions with an owner and a date.
Keep the record on the variety and the plot
Every treatment with its date, every question and every decision is recorded against the variety and the block. Anyone on the team pulls it up at any point in the season.
Start next season from this one
What was applied, what the plot did and what it returned feed next year’s plan. A finding on one site is on record for all the others.
The plan and the record stay with the farm when people move.
The answer arrives between agronomist visits, the record has no gaps, and every decision stays with the farm when staff change.
Of surveyed growers use ORTH for weather, timing and planning: when to plant, when to act, what the week brings for the plot.
Between what was applied and what was recorded, on every plot, all season.
Stay with the farm when the people who made them leave. A new hire starts from the full record of the block.
The plan changes before the field loses a week.
A block is approaching flowering. The programme has irrigation, a nutrition change and a spray all in the same window. ORTH pulls in the current stage, the latest field notes, the weather window, the irrigation history and the harvest target. It orders the three jobs by urgency, flags the missing observation that decides the order, and sends the final call to the crew as assigned actions.
What growers ask ORTH about planning.
Typed or spoken from the row, in your language. Answered from your plots, your weather, your analyses and your protocol, with the working shown.
