Plant health information system
Advisory service promoting plant protection and health
Description
The Plant Health Information system provided information on a broad variety of pesticides, pests and fertilizers for various crops, including grains, vegetables, fruit and berries in support of agricultural decision-making.
Technology
The web-based Plant Health Information System delivered insights in two sections, covering pesticides and fertilizers. The Pesticides section offered information on pests and pesticides categorized by crop type, pest and pesticides. The fertilizer data was organized in three main categories, addressing solid, liquid and biostimulant products.
Target
The primary users of the Plant Health Information System were farmers, farm managers and agronomists who need to make informed decisions related to pest control, pesticide applications and fertilizer use; agricultural researchers seeking research data; government entities, which could use the system to inform farmers of safety regulations; and private sector entities, which could use the system to promote their products.
Business model

Impact
