Crop health alerts
An alert names its parcel. It stays in the list when notifications are off.
Alerts lists crop-health alerts for the signed-in account. Each one belongs to one parcel and comes from a photo taken on a walk. The page is in the app menu, next to Portfolio and Manage. On a small screen it is inside Menu.
This note covers that list: what a row contains, what an empty page means, and what changes when browser notifications are on or blocked.
A row
Each alert is a card. The card shows:
- The parcel name
- The words Crop health, then the date and time
- A short message
The newest alert is first. The list is for this account only. Another account does not see these rows.
If the parcel has been deleted, the card cannot show its name. The title becomes Parcel removed. The date and the message stay. Deleting the parcel does not delete the alert. The farm the parcel belonged to is not on this card. The alert names a parcel, not a farm.
Open the parcel from Portfolio if you need the fiche, the outline, or the square the picture came from. The alerts page does not draw the map.
When the list is empty
The empty line is No alerts yet.
An empty list means no crop-health alert has been stored for this account. It does not mean every parcel is healthy. It does not mean a walk failed. A walk can finish, and the squares can hold pictures, with this page still empty.
Saving a picture on a walk does not, by itself, decide that the crop is unhealthy. The square on the map says what was recognized, and it says so when nothing was recognized. An alert is a separate record. It is stored when a crop-health finding exists for that picture. No finding, no alert.
Growth stage and hydration are not listed here. This page is crop health only. A picture that was read for something else does not become a row.
Notifications
Turn on notifications asks the browser to show a notification when an alert is stored. When this browser is already subscribed, the button reads Notifications are on and does not ask again.
The list does not change. The cards are the record. The notification is a copy that arrives at the time the alert is stored. One finding becomes one alert for that person and that parcel. A picture with no finding does not become a card, and it does not become a notification.
If you refuse, the page says the browser blocked notifications. Alerts stay in this list. Open Alerts to read them. Refusing does not pause the walk, and it does not stop a finding from being stored.
If browser notifications are not set up on this server, the page says so. Alerts stay in this list. You do not lose a card because the notification could not be sent.
If notifications could not be turned on for another reason, the page says that too. Same rule: the list still holds the alerts.
One alert is one card. Turning notifications on does not duplicate the old cards into a second list. Turning them off, or blocking them, does not remove cards that are already there.
What you should not infer
A card is not a treatment, and it does not name a disease. It is not a full reading of the leaf. The message is the text stored with that alert. The parcel name is where it belongs. The date is when it was stored.
The square on the field surface remains the place for the pictures. Open the square to see the frames that covered that ground. The alert does not replace those frames, and the frames do not all become alerts.
A Mini 4 Pro pass fills the same surface as a walk. This list still talks about a photo from a walk, because that is what a crop-health alert is tied to. A pale square, or a square that recognized nothing, is not an alert. Come back to this page only when a card exists.
One card per picture
The same picture does not create a second card. If that frame is saved again, the list keeps the card it already has. A different picture on the same parcel can add its own card. Two parcels never share one card.
The date and time follow the language of the page. The parcel name is the current name on the fiche. Rename the parcel, and the card shows the new name. Parcel removed is the case where no name remains.
The sentence under the page title is the rule for the whole list: each alert belongs to one parcel and comes from a photo taken on a walk. The cards repeat that rule, one by one.
The crop stays on the fiche
The card does not repeat the crop, the variety, or the campaign year. Those stay on the fiche. Open the parcel from Portfolio when you need them. The alert carries the parcel name, the label Crop health, the date, and the message.
A vine, a corn field, and a wheat field use the same list. The card does not change shape with the crop. What changes is the message stored for that picture, and the parcel it names.
Where to go next
Match the parcel name to the map. On Portfolio, click that parcel and read the fiche if you need the crop, the variety, and the campaign year. Open the field surface if you need the pictures around the same ground.
If the title is Parcel removed, the outline is gone. The message is all that remains of that alert. It cannot be opened on the map.
Create farm, edit the outline, and start a walk from their own screens. None of those actions writes a card here. A card appears when a crop-health finding is stored for a picture, and only then.
