For Observations
When to record an observation
- Regularly: At least once a week per plot during the growing season
- During a problem: Immediately when you detect a problem
- After treatment: To monitor effectiveness
- Phenological changes: To mark important stages
Voice recording quality
- Speak clearly: Articulate well, avoid half-pronounced words
- Avoid background noise: Find a quiet place if possible
- Optimal distance: 20-30 cm from the microphone
- Structure your speech: Mention plot, problem, details, actions
Example of a well-structured observation:
"Observation of the North plot, Merlot grape variety. Detection of mildew on the leaves, flowering stage. The leaves have characteristic oily spots. Preventive treatment recommended. Humid conditions favorable to development."
