What is a crop cycle?

A crop cycle links a named crop and variety to a field. It carries planting and harvest dates and moves through planned, planted, growing, harvesting and closed stages.

How is field work assigned?

A field task connects its task type and due date to a field, crop cycle and person. The operator can follow the assigned work in My Field Tasks.

How are input lots tracked?
