Disease and pest outlier alert notifications

Purpose

1.1. Continuous detection of unusual patterns in disease and pest incidence for rapid containment.
1.2. Ensure compliance with local, national, and cooperative mandates on agricultural health and field monitoring.
1.3. Minimize crop loss and operational disruption through early warnings, real-time notifications, and escalations.
1.4. Centralize alerts for field managers, agronomists, and compliance officers, enabling coordinated response plans.
1.5. Facilitate automated reporting to cooperative leadership and regulatory bodies for mandatory disclosures.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Receipts of sensor or scout data showing metrics above or below specified agronomic thresholds.
2.2. Machine learning models flag outlier data against known baseline for pest and disease prevalence.
2.3. Manual entry or mobile app submission of outlier reports from field personnel.
2.4. Scheduled scans of environmental APIs that correlate weather anomalies with pest/disease outbreaks.
2.5. Missed periodic updates from monitoring devices or teams triggering an escalation workflow.
