JDOffice 1.2<br />

Multiple Crops in One Field<br />

JDOffice supports multiple crops in one field. When two or more crops are<br />

present in a given field, the field will look like multiple fields (from the farm map)<br />

because it will be divided with crop boundaries.<br />

If you move the cursor over them, the field name and crop planted will appear<br />

in the message line at the bottom of the screen. When you double click on a<br />

crop (or click Go to Field) on the farm map, the entire field map will open (with<br />

all crops).<br />

On the map above, North Field is planted with corn on the left and soybeans on<br />

the right. Because there are multiple crops in the same field, the Add Map<br />

Layers window has duplicate Harvest Log layers - one for each crop.<br />

Within the Layers chooser, the field layers will be divided between the two<br />

crops. JDOffice will treat the crops as separate fields although both crops and<br />

their corresponding layers will appear on the screen together.<br />

If you have multiple crops in a field, you are still able to create an application<br />

plan - although there can only be one plan per crop. For example, let’s assume<br />

the field has both corn and soybeans. First, create a new plan for corn (use the<br />

Layers chooser to view the crop boundary). Wherever soybeans are planted in<br />

the field, set the rate to zero. Copy the plan, then reverse the rates of seeding<br />

between the two crops in the polygons that have already been established. It<br />

is important to divide the field correctly between the two crops, otherwise the<br />

number of bags of seed (per variety) on the Seeding Plan Summary report may<br />
