Field Jobs let you record farm work, specific to what you do in your fields. You can set up work categories and include inputs and outputs in a structured way so that they can be used for reporting. Field Jobs can be attached to one or more fields and multiple inputs or outputs can be attached to the same job.

When inputs are added to a Field Job you can set a rate for them and a total for each input is calculated based on the working area of the fields for that job, or enter the total amount of input used and the input rate will be calculated.

When outputs are added to a Field Job, you can set the yield per hectare/acre and the total yield per field and job will be calculated. If you know the total yield per field, you can add this and fieldmargin will calculate the yield per hectare/acre for you.
