How to: Log Fertiliser or Manure.

What It Tells You

The applications log is what went on which field, at what rate, on which date. The rest of the app is built from it. The nutrient plan reads it to show what remains. The NVZ and Nmax checks read it to say whether the field is inside its limit. The SFI evidence and the spray log read it for the claim pack and the MAPP check. The models read it too. The BYDV count restarts from the last aphicide in the log. The nitrogen timing model only knows what has been applied if it is recorded here.

How It Works

Record each application in the field as you do it, with or without signal, from the + sheet on any tab. An entry made offline is sent when the phone reconnects. Each spray product is checked against the MAPP register at entry. Its approval status is stored with the record. An organic nitrogen entry takes the manure type and how it was spread, surface, incorporated within six or twenty-four hours, bandspread or shallow injected, and the crop-available nitrogen is worked out from the standard values for that pair. The NVZ field record prints it in Defra’s column. Every application, spray and note is one row on the Records timeline.
