Disease Risk Alerts
Disease Risk Alerts adds daily crop-specific risk forecasts, a within-field risk map, and configurable email alerts to a field with active Vegetation Monitoring.
What you receive
- A daily risk assessment covering today and the next six days.
- Every supported disease or pest associated with the selected crop.
- A within-field layer showing where pressure is highest.
- A timeline for comparing risk across the forecast window.
- Email alerts when a risk newly crosses your chosen threshold.

Requirements
The field needs an active Vegetation Monitoringsubscription. Disease Risk Alerts uses the field's monitoring context together with observed and forecast weather, crop timing, and terrain.
How to activate it
- Open a field with active Vegetation Monitoring.
- Select the option to add Disease Risk Alerts.
- Choose the crop currently growing in the field.
- Add the planting date when available to improve growth-stage timing.
- Confirm the order and wait for the first forecast to complete.
The service is billed annually at €0.50 per hectare. See thepricing page for the current commercial summary.
Reading the forecast
Each disease card shows its peak risk across the next seven days and the individual daily values behind it. Higher values mean the field is moving into conditions that strongly favour infection or pest development, giving you time to prioritize scouting and protection planning.
Open the map layer to see how satellite moisture and vegetation signals, terrain, and local field conditions change the risk within the boundary.
Email alerts
Set an alert threshold separately for each monitored risk. Siora sends an email when the forecast newly crosses that threshold, so the alert focuses attention on a meaningful change rather than repeating the same notification every day.

Scientific methods
Siora builds its crop-specific calculations on established disease-forecasting and pest-timing methods, then applies field weather, crop timing, satellite signals, and terrain.
- Mills and Mills-LaPlante for apple scab
- Smith Period and Hutton Criteria for potato late blight
- Gubler-Thomas for grape powdery mildew
- TOMCAST for relevant carrot, celery, and asparagus leaf blights
- DOWNCAST/SIP for onion downy mildew
- DIV/BEETcast for sugar beet Cercospora
- De Wolf-style analysis for wheat Fusarium head blight
- Degree-day analysis for European corn borer
