Missing Harvest Information

As you harvest this fall, are you missing a place to include yield information in your harvest information box? The properties on your harvester are most likely set up incorrectly. Read on for a quick fix!

The Harvest Information area of the Farming box is where you will enter the yield data of the field. Yield information can be entered manually, entered with the Harvest Calculator, or by entering Scale Tickets from the elevator. This information will be used in your notations, and if you have Farm Fund$ the total harvest or farm input share value will be added to the harvest inventory.

If the Harvest Information area of the Farming box is missing, check the properties of your equipment. One of the pieces of equipment being used for harvest needs to be selected as a Harvester in the Machine Properties (typically the combine or the combine head).

1. Go to the equipment tab on the left side of the screen, open the correct picture group and right click on the equipment name or icon being used for the harvest operation.
2. Select Properties from the right-click menu. The Equipment Properties window will be displayed.
   
3. Make sure Harvester is selected beneath the Machine Properties area for this piece of equipment.
   
4. Click OK.
   
5. Continue recording farming operations.
