Disease Forecast

  • a prediction of the likelihood that the weather conditions (temperature, humidity, rainfall) in the specified Location may be conducive to a particular disease. All the App’s outputs are intended to be used to support and inform turf management decisions taken independently by you, or where you use the App as part of a service you provide to your End Customers, by you and your End Customers. The App, including the Outputs, should not be used for any other purpose.

PLEASE NOTE – The outputs provided by the App are dependent upon some factors that we cannot control:

  • The weather – due to the nature of weather forecasting, forecasts provided by our weather forecasting partners will not be entirely accurate.
  • Local conditions - conditions at the Location may be conducive to disease even when the weather forecast is outside the risk criteria.
  • Third party data – although we take reasonable care to ensure that we use good quality, accurate third-party data, some third-party data is made available for use by us without any warranty that it is correct or error-free.
  • Your Inputs - the quality, accuracy and timeliness of Your Inputs may affect the Outputs.
  • Information may not be fully up to date - we take reasonable care to ensure that information about turf care products (for example, products, varieties, equipment) is up to date at the time when it is incorporated in the App. Updated data may be released from time to time but will only be incorporated into the App periodically when we release an App update. Therefore, you should not rely on agricultural product information in the App as being fully up-to-date.
