Since ApRecs joined Semios in 2021, our teams have been focused on bringing more combined value to our customers.
We're excited to announce that we have simplified the application record writing process by automatically populating Semios weather data in your ApRecs form with just one click.
This integration also closes the pest management loop showing applied sprays and the on-farm pest conditions - including degree days and trap catches - to provide a clearer picture of your program’s impact. This gives you an enhanced view of your Semios pest and disease dashboards with ApRecs spray application timing data, all in one place.
Semios’ ApRecs Integration Overview
ApRecs connects your information and streamlines record keeping from start to finish, easily adapting to changes along the way. Everyone is on the same page with real-time work status, re-entry and pre-harvest Intervals, and inventory, so you can spend more time farming and less time with paperwork.

Key Features
- Save time completing application records in ApRecs by automatically fetching temperature and wind data from your closest Semios weather station.
- Works seamlessly across mobile and desktop so that records can be automatically finished when the work is done, saving time and reducing errors.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of your sprays by seeing how your previous application timings line up against temperature, trap count, pest phenology, and disease risk data on the Semios pest and disease pages.
