ARVALIS – Your provider of agronomic models
Upgrade your DSS with our crop protection and Irrigation management models
Given the environmental, economic, and regulatory constraints facing agricultural production, making the right decision at the right time is becoming increasingly important. Decision Support Tools enable farmers to fine-tune crop management and interventions on each plot and help them optimize their production plans. These digital solutions are accessible via a smartphone, tablet, or computer, and are either integrated into or connected to a field management tool or weather station. They contribute positively to more sustainable and productive agriculture.
Today, the number of farmers using Decision Support Tools (DSTs) continues to grow. More than 87% of them are convinced of their usefulness*, as they enable farmers to optimize the use of inputs, better organize their crop management activities, and improve the economic performance of their operations.

ARVALIS at the heart of the best DMS
For 60 years, the applied research institute ARVALIS has been an expert in agronomic understanding and modeling of field crops. This expertise is now incorporated into agronomic models used in many DSTs, covering the main field crops: straw cereals, corn, potatoes, fiber flax, and forages.

Prévi-LIS : Protect your cereals against pest and diseases with Prévi-LIS
PRÉVI-LIS models for “Cereal Protection,” designed to be integrated into DSSs for managing fungicide protection in winter cereals, enable farmers to anticipate the onset of diseases and take action in the field at the right time while ensuring treatment gaps are avoided.
With PREVI-LIS :
- Track the growth of your crops using development stage forecasts
- Anticipate the onset of diseases so you can act while there’s still time
- Receive alerts about risks so you can visit your field at the right time to decide whether or not to take action
- Make informed decisions about interventions, avoiding unnecessary treatments
What are the benefits ?
- -0,26 TFI on T1 and T2 fingicides on soft winter wheat; thanks to disease control models
- 2.3 quintals/ha Using the septoria model on soft wheat, compared to a conventional fungicide program
