Appearance
The Seed tab
The Seed tab on a field records which seed went into each planting: the certification number, the size grade and how much was used. It also records the treatments applied to that seed. Everything is grouped by planting, so the record stays tied to one crop.
Opening the tab
Open the field, then click Seed in the field's tab bar.
What each planting card contains
Each planting with at least one seed stock gets its own card, titled with the planting reference and variety.
Seed Stocks
A row for each seed stock used on the planting:
- Map Ref: which part of the seed map this stock relates to, for example A or B. Useful when you've uploaded a seed map as an attachment.
- Crop Number: the seed certification number.
- Size: the size fraction, for example 35/45.
- Quantity Used: how much of this stock was planted, in tonnes.
Total Seed Planted (Mt) at the bottom adds up the quantity across the planting's stocks.
Seed Treatments
Shown once the planting has at least one seed treatment, with a row for each:
- Product: the seed treatment product used.
- Rate Applied: the rate, with its unit.
- Quantity Used: the total used.
WARNING
A planting only appears on this tab once it has at least one seed stock. A seed treatment saved against a planting with no seed stocks won't show here until you add a stock, so add the seed stock first.
