Fields & Crops Management ​
Before you can record treatment logs, you must define the geographical layout of your farm. AgriReg uses digital mapping to associate every operation precisely with specific plots of land.
Creating a New Field ​
To add a field to AgriReg:
- Log in to the main dashboard and click on Fields in the sidebar.
- Click the Add Field button in the top right corner.
- Complete the required details:
- Field name: A friendly identifier (e.g., Main Vineyard, North Wheat Field).
- Area (in hectares): The system automatically calculates this value if you draw the borders on the map.
- Current Crop: The plant species currently grown (e.g., Grapevine, Durum wheat, Olive tree). Selecting the correct crop is vital for automatic treatment validation rules.
Drawing Borders on the Map ​
AgriReg features an interactive map powered by open geographic data and satellite imagery:
- Manual drawing: Use the polygon tool to click on the map and trace the outer boundary of your parcel.
- Cadastral import: If you have the Shapefiles (
.shp) or GeoJSON files of your cadastral parcels, you can upload them directly by clicking Import GeoJSON/Shapefile. The system will automatically extract the geometries and compute the exact area.
Crop Rotation ​
When a growing season ends and you rotate the crop on a field, do not delete the existing field entry. Instead, use the New Season action:
- Open the specific field details.
- Click on Change Crop / New Season.
- Enter the new crop type and the starting date of the new cultivation cycle.
AgriReg preserves the historical crop records, allowing you to access treatment history from previous years for each piece of land.
