Farm Trac screen shot

Farm  Trac is a full mapping and auto notation package written  for Microsoft Windows. Designed with the farmer in mind, Farm Trac lets you  draw, and farm your fields to keep automatic notations for field history and  chemical usage on each field.

  • Includes easy-to-use drawing tools  for drawing fields, structures and landmarks.
  • Use scanned FSA maps to help you  draw your maps.
  • Farm your fields using icons that  represent your machinery, animals and personnel  to simulate your farming actions. Planting a field?  Simple. Just select a tractor, driver, and planter;  load the planter with seed, fertilizer, and chemicals;  go to the field and plant. A notation will automatically  be made listing the date, the operation, who performed  the operation, the equipment used, kind and rate  of seed, fertilizer, and chemicals used. At harvest,  record yields per acre as well as totals using scale  tickets or a "Harvest Calculator." 
  • Calculates acreage on your fields,  automatically.
  • Unlimited zoom, from an entire  map of the United States down to a small garden  spot. This gives you unlimited space in which to  draw your map (no need to ever resize).
  • Tracks inputs, production, and  crop rotation information.
  • Print full-color maps to any Windows  compatible printer.
  • Ability to create EPA required  Pesticide Application Schedules that conform to  Worker Protection Standards.
  • Note tillage practices, fertilizer  rates, herbicide use, weather conditions, crop yields,  etc.
  • Easy-to-use on-screen help functions.
  • Keep maintenance records, oil changes,  etc. on equipment.
  • Save maps in a Windows bitmap file  for use in other programs.
  • Keep your field histories automatically so you'll know at a glance which practices work  best. No need to type, it's automatic! You just  simulate your farming actions and Farm Trac records  these actions.
  • Record, sort, and print restricted  chemical requirements automatically. 
  • Split or merge fields at any time  to reflect changes in farming methods.
  • Field colors and patterns change  to look tilled, planted, or harvested.
  • Record pasture rotations for intensified  grazing.
  • Print notation listings by field,  date, etc. automatically.
  • Display text on fields, streams,  structures, or create special "notes"  that can be placed anywhere on your map and printed.
