TIP: Farm Funds
Anticipating the Addition of Farm Funds
Plan ahead to make the addition of Farm Funds easier and
more productive. When you set up your Icons in Farm Trac,
consider how you want to look at your field operations records.
The following are the scenarios to help you make decisions
on Equipment Setup.
Do you borrow or rent equipment? If you are considering purchasing
that same kind of equipment, set up the borrowed or rented
equipment in your project and track the hours and acres they
are used with. This information will be helpful when you are
ready to purchase your own equipment.
Do you use more than one piece of equipment in the field
at the same time? If so, how are you going to keep track of
the usage? Consider using hours instead of acres so it coincides
with your tractor hours.
Consider that when you cultivate or plow, you are in the
field for the same acres but it takes more wear and tear on
your tractor to plow. When hours are used, it will reflect
more accurate usage of the equipment.
When you set up your equipment with these things in mind,
the transition into Farm Fund$ will be smoother, enabling
you to see the cost analysis on your field and equipment that
you have always wanted.
