Maps are automatically created for every field and enterprise that you have set up in Farm Trac. No user interface required
When data is updated (such as when a new farming job or accounting record is recorded), the Enterprise Summary will automatically be updated
The Enterprise Summary Map can be used to show a map of:
Fixed Expenses – The average cost per hectare of all farming jobs or allocated expenses that were performed equally over the field
Variable Expenses – The average cost per hectare of all farming jobs that were conducted variably over a field. Each grid square will reflect the total variable expenses for that part of the field. Examples of Variable Expenses include the variable application of fertilizer, seed and other inputs. Additionally, any job that was only performed to part of a field will result in Variable Expenses, as will fields that were planted with different varieties
Income – The average income per hectare for crop sales. If the field has a yield map, the program will use the values from the yield map combined with a crop value to create the Income Map
Profit – This map will take the Income Map less the Variable and Fixed Expenses to come up with a Profit Map that shows the profit in each part of the field
When the Pro module is used with Farm Funds, all costs will be calculated from actual costs that have been recorded in your cash register
When the Pro module is used with Farm Trac and Site, the program will use the costs that were manually assigned to each supply, piece of equipment and person. Additionally, it will use the value assigned to each crop. These costs can be changed for individual jobs as needed
The Pro module will give users the ability to create VRA Prescription maps using formulae. The program will come preloaded with some standard formulas and will give users the ability to modify the formulas as needed. Formulas will be able to utilize map data on different map layers. This can include using soil test results from a grid or management soil sampling map along with yield data (for crop removal) from a yield map.
