Soybean farmers unable to detect and prevent seed diseases before harvest losses occur
Soybean farmers face significant financial losses from seed diseases that cause increased dockage (price reduction) and decreased germination rates, particularly during wet harvest seasons. Current scouting methods are reactive and manual, requiring farmers to identify diseases after they've already damaged the crop, leaving no time for preventive intervention. Farmers need early detection solutions to catch diseases before harvest to minimize yield loss and maintain seed quality.
