MyScout is the premier app for digitally recording and analyzing diseases, pests, and natural enemies in horticulture. With MyScout, you can easily log location-specific observations and sticky trap counts. All scouting data is automatically synchronized with the Auxin dashboard, giving you immediate insight into the current pest pressure per crop, greenhouse, or season. Add photos and notes, and easily allow your specialist to monitor the data for crop advice. Thanks to smart notifications, you stay informed of important developments, such as a sudden pest outbreak or new scouting results. By comparing pest progression with the application of natural enemies, (im)balances quickly become apparent. This allows you to identify risks earlier and take timely, targeted action. Benefits of MyScout: • Simple and location-specific scouting • Immediate insight via the Auxin dashboard • Smart notifications for important changes • Insight into multi-year trends • Better support for Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
