[rimprona] RIMpro for fire blight

[Vincent Philion]

Hi!


How do wetting events influence the model?  For example, Cougar blight only uses accumulations of degree hours and status of fire blight in the orchard the previous seasons.

A short wetting event is necessary for infection, bacteria need to move from the flower stigma to the nectarthodes. Detecting it is not easy (ex: dew), so some programs (like Cougar) don’t include it. But wetness is still necessary.
