Spring is here and it's time to get your FarmLogs account set up for a successful season! This video demonstrates a few things you can do to prepare for a busy year ahead. Below you'll find links to support articles with step-by-step instructions.
1. Add your 2021 crops
You can either add crops to fields individually or now you can add the same crop to multiple fields using the Marketing feature.
2. Customize your Activity Types
Edit the operational cost of each activity type or add new activity types to use when logging field work throughout the season.
3. Set up Other Expense and Revenue accounts
Add Other Expense and Revenue accounts to keep track of costs and income outside of field work and inputs. Think of these as accounts on your income statement such as crop insurance, utilities, and diesel fuel, for example.
4. Log Input purchases
To keep an accurate cost of production automatically as you log field work throughout the season, be sure to log any input purchases you've made already for this year.
5. Enter land agreements
Ensure you have entered all your land agreements in the Land Costs feature so your Profit & Loss statement is accurate and you can quickly generate Reports, such as a Crop Share Report.
