Farm Files CropsTM
Farm Files Premier tracks commodities, fields, harvest, chemicals, planting, fertilizer, tillage, expenses, income, contracts and custom trucking.
Commodities
The commodities form allows you to enter any commodity you raise and its crop weight. Farm Files is not limited to a specific geographical region or crop.
Fields
The fields form allows you to enter the names of your fields, the year that the crop was grown, the number of acres in each field, the name of the commodity or crop, and then attach the name of the tenant/owners, and his/her share percentage of the crop. This percentage will be used for reporting purposes to automatically calculate each person's net bushels.
Field Mapping
Farm Files lets you draw out and design your fields. If you have a scanner you can scan a map such as your FSA field mappings. You can also import graphic images such as gifs and bitmaps. There are also many other options available to you to import images into Farm Files.
Harvest
The harvest form tracks the commodity/crop you are growing, the year, field, date, moisture, test weight, protein/oil, truck/driver, gross, tare, dockage, net weight, and bushels/cwt./ton. In this form you can also click the moisture button to enter your shrinkage information.
Fertilizer
The fertilizer area contains the name of the fertilizer used, analysis, field, date, year, crop, method of application, rate, cost, and a comments area for any additional comments.
Tillage
The tillage form allows you to track your fields, date, year, method of tillage, crop, acres, cost, and any additional comments.
Chemicals
Farm Files is compliant with all the regulations that the federal government requires the general applicator to keep track of. The items it tracks are the field/location, the crop/product that the chemical was applied to, date, year, acres, applicator, certification number, chemical applied, EPA numbers, rate, quantity, cost, and any additional comments such as wind direction, speed, temperature, time of day, etc.
Planting
In the planting form, you will be able to track the field where the commodity was planted, date, year, crop, variety, population, acres, planting depth, condition of the field when planted, previous crop, cost, and any additional comments.
Expenses
In the expense area you can enter any additional expenses that you might have incurred other than chemical, fertilizer, planting and tillage. The expense area tracks the field, year, commodity, elevator, date, bushels, price, deductions, income amount, seller and the description of the income. You will need to enter the description of the expense, the year, cost, date, and field.
Income
The income area is where you can enter your income transactions such as selling of your grain, government payments, etc.
Contracts
There are three areas for contract information. In the contract details area you will set up the contract number, commodity, number of bushels the contract is for, maximum and minimum bushels, price, destination, and date. The contract transaction area tracks the truck loads as they come in against the contract. The contract payment area tracks the payments that the elevators give you. The contract number, year, commodity, number of bushels, price, date of the payment, amount of check and deductions are all tracked in this area.
Trucking
The trucking area is used to keep track of custom hauling of grain. This allows you to generate an invoice if you haul for hire. You will enter the tickets that you receive for the load you hauled. There are two main areas in the trucking form. One is for the hauling of grain. The items this form tracks are commodity hauled, year, ticket number, origin or load, destination of the load, date, moisture, test weight, truck driver, gross weight, tare rate, dockage, the rate you charged for the load and the drivers percentage. If you are not hauling by the bushel, you will need to press the UOM's (Units of Measurement) tab located near the upper left-hand corner. In this screen, you will select the Cargo, year, ticket number, origin, destination, date, truck/driver, gross, tare, Unit of measure, number of units, rate and the drivers percentage. After data has been entered, you may generate a truck report. You can filter the report to your discretion. You will be asked to enter the billing information (name of your company), leasing information (name of company leased to, if applicable), who the load was hauled for or who is being billed, and where the load was shipped to or from. You can set default information by clicking the set default key. Lastly, you will need to input the name the checks are to be made out to and input the invoice number and date of the invoice. Farm Files will then generate the invoice for you.
