Farming and Tasks
Use Producepak to track farming inputs and costs, traceability, KPI's and
TASKS
Tasks represent each job done on the farm, eg: Spray, Harvest, Fertilize, Planting/seeding etc. Configure your tasks from Settings > Tasks. Tasks can have info like inventory, equipment, and employees, all of which have costs that will be added to the Crop.
BLOCKS AND CROPS
Before you can make Tasks, go to Settings > Blocks to create your farming areas.
A block is an area of land like "South Farm". A Crop is an instance of a planting on that Block (or, for perennial crops, its a season). The Crop becomes the traceability and cost center for this instance of the planting and can be used for recalls. Configure Blocks and Crops from Settings > Blocks.
RECORDING FARM TASKS
Give Employees permission to view "Tasks" screen. Use this screen to find, create, and edit all farm tasks.
GEO MAPING / FARM MAPS
The map icon can be seen on Tasks, Block, Crop screens. Wherever you see the icon, tap it to:
* Draw a border on a map to represent the object
* Draw an area on a map to represent the are you worked on during a task
* Once you open the mapping screen, tap the tractor icon to automatically record your live GPS movement
* When performing a task activate Geo Fencing the ensure you perform the task in the correct area, and to keep a record of task movements.
FARM REPORTING AND ANALYSIS
Use the Dashboards > Farming dashboard and Tasks dashboard to report on farming activities and cost, and perform farm traceability. If you use the New Inventory "Harvest" screen to record incoming inventory to your packhouse, you can also use the Yield Dashboard.
