    Simple crop recording

    Thanks @farmerfred86 - we are adding the features we get asked for the most and our users (in 80 countries now) needed a lightweight way to plan and keep track of input usage.

    Agriculture in the next 100 years

    I spend a lot of time thinking about this topic - some great opinion here already - will try not to repeat. All of this is prediction and opinion mixed with having an overview of how things have happened in other industries (manufacturing) and the studies being conducted all over the world...

    Map apps
