FieldView Cab for iPad and iPhone is a simple and powerful farm management app that enables growers to collect and understand field data through rich maps and reports. It combines the best in real-time cab monitoring with simple field data analysis tools into a mobile app that benefits from the portability and connectivity of the iPad. FieldView Cab connects to a FieldView Drive or Precision Planting's 20/20 monitor to display real-time maps of your planter’s performance or high definition Yield maps during harvest. Shapefile maps can be imported into FieldView Cab so that any Planting, Application, Harvest, or Imported map can be viewed side by side. When not in the planter, sprayer, or combine cab field data is stored on the iPad and iPhone to enable informed field scouting. Whether at home, the office, or in the field your maps are in a single easy to browse mobile tool. FieldView Plus users can manage their operation remotely and stay aware of what is happening from anywhere. Maps sync between all iPads and iPhones on an account and RemoteView allows a real-time connection to any planter or combine in the field. FieldView on the web provides the grower access to maps, detailed reports, machine location, timely alerts, and the ability to easily share data with trusted advisors. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery charge. Terms of Service — https://climate.com/en-us/legal/terms-of-service.html

About

MPSG Bean App

Features
Read full description

The Manitoba Pulse & Soybean Growers (MPSG) Bean app features unique and interactive tools to assist soybean and dry bean farmers with important crop production decisions, such as seeding rates and fungicide applications. ● Use the Seeding Rate Calculator to find the most economical seeding rate for your soybeans. This tool first helps you identify the optimum plant stand based on current market price and expected yield, and then by estimating the seed survival rate, the calculator recommends a seeding rate that will be most profitable. ● Use the Soybean plant stand calculator tool to assess your established plant population and receive feedback based on scientific data conducted in Manitoba. This tool is a great example of how the results of scientific research can be applied directly to production practices. ● Use the Soybean Growth Staging Guide to identify all the key growth and development stages of soybeans. Proper identification of growth staging is critical for field operations such as herbicide and fungicide applications. This tool identifies each growth stage from emergence to harvest, with pictures and detailed descriptions as a helpful reference. ● Use the Soybean yield estimator tool to ‘estimate’ soybean yield. You may find it useful to estimate your soybean yield to help aid in judging storage capacity and budgeting. But remember, it’s only an estimate! Soybean yields are highly variable within fields. Increasing the number of samples can increase the accuracy. ● Soybean Harvest Loss Assessor – Determine soybean yield loss during harvest. This tool allows you to enter counts of soybean seeds lost at the header, where 80% of harvest losses occur. The calculator easily converts seed counts to yield loss by factoring in seed size and the rule that 4 seeds per square foot are equal to 1 bu/ac of yield loss. This tool may also be used for losses behind the combine. ● Use the Fungicide Decision Tool to assess the risk of white mould in your dry beans. This tool considers the key elements that can lead to disease development; weather conditions, management practices, and crop rotation. The Manitoba Pulse & Soybean Growers Association does not validate results and takes no responsibility for the accuracy of these results.
