Cropwise Protector Scouting vs Arc™ farm intelligence

Protector is the digital tool that makes agronomic decision easier and faster, supporting the grower with precision monitoring and analysis of the results. Protector Scouting enables simplified monitoring of the main agronomic data and speeds up the visualization and analysis of the results. Currently, more than 4 million hectares are monitored with the technology developed by Syngenta Digital. The application works seamlessly with analysis and management tools: Protector Analytics and Protector Web Panel. Together, they provide to the grower more agility and decision power. See below for its main resources and data that can be collected: - Sample of problems: monitoring of pests, diseases, weeds and parameters of quality and evolution of the crop so that the grower can closely monitor the real situation of the crop; - Phenological stage: register the growth of the plants and follow the evolution of the crop; - Inspection and Management of Rain Gauges, Traps and other Fixed Points; - Soil sampling and various notes; - Complete Application Registration; - List of tasks for field technicians, with georeferencing; - Offline collection: information is recorded and data is synchronized when there is a connection. Protector Scouting can be used on tablets and/or cell phones. Get better performance by also updating your Protector Analytics app. To use the apps, you must be a Protector customer.
