Managing Farms

View and manage farm assets online to see what’s growing where and who you’re selling to, with summary and detail views.

Once farm assets are set up online in your Trimble Ag Software account, including clients, farms and fields, you can view and make certain changes to these records on the mobile app.

Farms can be set up online with basic information, and can be associated with fields on your account during setup online or on the Trimble Ag Mobile app. Include a client (also known as grower on precision ag vehicle displays) to easily group fields and farms on your account.

1. Log in to your account online (learn more)
2. Click on the Farm tab (top menu)
3. Select Farms from the left navigation menu
4. Click on the Farms tab

7. Enter or edit the optional FSA Number (Farm Service Agency tracking number assigned to farms in the US by the USDA)
8. Select the Client name from the dropdown list or click the quick-add plus + sign to add a new client name
   • Note: adding a client name to each farm makes it easy to match both as a paired set to fields in your account; client names are not related to contracts that track projected sales revenue for your farm
9. Click Save (or Cancel)

Quickly add new farms to your Trimble Ag Software account when editing or adding fields on your mobile app. To include an optional client name, edit the field details online.

Later, log in to your online account to associate a client with your new farm, if needed.

When you’re starting to set up your Trimble Ag Software account, you can easily retire clients, farms or fields from your online account, with the option to unretire partial details for these items later. Do this in the early stages of setting up your account as, once items are retired, some important information such as operational data and expenses may not be available if the asset is unretired later.

3. Select Farms from the left navigation menu

7. Click the delete (retire)  icon
   
8. Review the warning and click Retire (or Cancel)
