SpudScout is the complete field tool for potato growers and agronomists, combining structured crop scouting, a built‑in disease identification guide, and professional reporting in one app. AI‑POWERED GROWER SUMMARIES SpudScout uses on‑device AI to turn your detailed scouting data into a clear, plain‑language summary, perfect for sharing with growers who don't need every technical detail. The summary highlights key findings across diseases, insects, weeds, and field issues, You review and can edit it before saving. The summary is created privately on your device, and your scouting data is never sent to an online AI service. Requires a device that supports Apple Intelligence. DISEASE IDENTIFICATION GUIDE Quickly identify potato diseases in the field with SpudScout's comprehensive reference library. Browse 25+ diseases organized by category: Foliar Diseases, Tuber & Soilborne Diseases, Physiological Disorders, and diseases not found in the USA. Each entry includes: Symptoms, disease cycle, and management recommendations High-quality reference photos Pathogen classification (fungus, bacterium, water mold) Affected plant parts and spread patterns Search by disease name or pathogen to find answers fast when it counts most. STRUCTURED SCOUTING SESSIONS Conduct complete field assessments that capture every aspect of crop health in one place. DISEASE MONITORING Track key diseases including early blight, late blight, white mold, gray mold, blackleg, aerial stem rot, verticillium wilt, and Rhizoctonia stem canker. The advanced stem canker tool lets you sample up to 5 plants, calculating accurate disease pressure across your sample. INSECT SCOUTING Monitor Colorado potato beetles, aphids, leafhoppers, flea beetles, wireworms, grubs, and more. Rate pressure levels quickly across fields. AGRONOMY & CROP DEVELOPMENT Record stand establishment, canopy development, and tuber growth in one structured assessment. Canopy and tuber growth stages follow the internationally recognized BBCH scale, with optional BBCH codes for precise staging. Add multiple tuber dig assessments per field, each with its own BBCH code, GPS location, and photos, so you can capture how development varies across a field. Track emergence, plant spacing, skips per row, canopy closure, vine vigor, stress symptoms, soil moisture, irrigation status, and soil temperature. WEED OBSERVATIONS Record weed species, growth stage, density, and distribution patch by patch, with overall pressure ratings across the field. FIELD ISSUES Log drainage problems, mechanical damage, nutrient deficiencies, and other concerns alongside biological observations. FIELD MAPS Attach up to six maps to every scouting session: field overview, aerial imagery, topographic, vegetation index, soil and EC, and scouting route. Take a photo of a printed map or import from your library. BUILT FOR THE FIELD SpudScout works offline.
