# FieldPulse Pest & Disease Risk Assessment

> FieldPulse Pest & Disease Risk Assessment is a paid API for AI agents from fieldpulse-tan.vercel.app, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns active pest and disease threats, EPPO/FAO IPPC outbreak alerts, weather-conducive conditions, and IPM treatment guidance for a specified crop

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability fieldpulse-pest-disease-risk-assessment-c0a88e46
```

Example prompt: What are the active pest and disease threats for my corn crop in central Iowa right now, including any EPPO or FAO IPPC outbreak alerts and IPM treatment recommendations I should act on?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a grower or agronomist agent needs a comprehensive, location-aware pest and disease risk briefing for a specific crop, especially when EPPO or FAO IPPC regulatory alerts, weather-driven disease pressure, and IPM treatment priorities are all needed in a single call. Prefer this over generic weather risk endpoints when the focus is specifically on biotic stressors (pests, pathogens) rather than abiotic risks (frost, drought).

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or unsupported crop name returns an error or empty threat list
- Missing location parameter results in inability to localize outbreak alerts or weather-conducive conditions
- No active threats found returns an empty or minimal response with no IPM guidance
- External EPPO/FAO data feeds unavailable causes stale or incomplete alert data
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request before processing

## How this service works

Pest and disease risk assessment for grower and agronomist agents. Returns active threats, EPPO and FAO IPPC outbreak alerts, weather-conducive conditions, and IPM treatment guidance for any crop.

## Output

A structured assessment including: list of active pest threats and disease risks for the specified crop, EPPO and FAO IPPC outbreak alert notices relevant to the region, weather-conducive conditions that elevate risk, and actionable IPM treatment guidance prioritized by threat severity.
