FarmLogic

A farm record system for growers

FarmLogic is a farm record keeping system that growers can use to build better records, make informed decisions and run their operations more efficiently. It was launched in 2009 and is delivered through web and mobile tools. Information about farming activities can be reached on a tablet, smartphone or desktop computer, and the company says the records are secure and available wherever the grower is.

Web Headquarters in the office

Web Headquarters is the foundation of the system and the home for record keeping. Its lists, field map drawing and GIS tools let managers define field boundaries, view and print reports of daily operations, and review the whole operation over the latest satellite imagery. Work orders for planting, spraying and nutrient applications are built and assigned from here, and plans for next year's crop can be costed and printed as a bill of goods. Records made in the office carry through to the field, so work is not written down twice.

FarmPAD in the field

FarmPAD is the mobile application that carries the system into the field. Installed on a tablet or smartphone, it gives the office system mobility. It works offline without a cellular connection, lets growers GPS their field boundaries, takes photos and notes of what they see, and includes a pest database for scouting. Work orders sync down from the office, and records made in the field sync back once a good connection is available.

Precision soil sampling and calculators

Soil Test Pro is a companion app for precision soil sampling. The product line also includes a Dry Grain Calculator and a Tank Mix Calculator for preparing spray mixes. Controller files can be attached to nutrient records for easy reference.

Support

The company says its customer support is available around the clock, and that it wants its tools to be practical and useful for growers.
