Fertiliser record spread sheet or program

[DairyGrazing]

Does anyone have something for recording fertiliser and slurry applications that produces a running total?

I use the “Rhiza Digital” software (toolbox) its part of a field mapping package but I find it great for creating a nutrient plan as it gives you the total N for all your applications. The red tractor man likes it as well as I print all the field date out. It’s hand to have the paper copy in the tractor when spreading for reference too.

It's not difficult to make your own spreadsheet up.

This year i was rather busy and ended up using a tiny freebie notepad and pen that some chemical company left for me, along with my iphone pocket calculator. I managed to spread 29 tonnes and ended up with just 150 kg over, which I whizzed onto the best looking wheat. I will fill in the Tried and Trusted record sheets when I get time but it's been done right which is all that matters. I have tried all sorts including excel but it gets involved and tiresome like a lot of these software packages. Busy trying to fool QBooks at the moment into accepting a lump sum VAT payment across two months. Wouldn't have been a problem on paper but QBooks being a dumb automaton wants a payment per month, not two months lumped into one payment and it just can't cope. yet another occurence of being a slave to a system rather than it actually helping me. Accountancy bill dearer than ever. No saving in time or expense. Same old same old.
