All Fields are required
Spray Details
You will need to fill out the details unique to this specific spray, this step helps build the picture of why you are spraying.
Spray Rig Selection
Simply select your spray rig from the list and verify that the details are correct
Currently we don't natively support multiple booms within the same spray. For the time being you will need to create two mostly identical records utilizing two different spray rigs
Application Boundary
This screen is for you to select the area you will be applying nutrient, its based off two different layers, either the crop layer or the paddock layer. If you are applying nutrient "whole crops" then click all the crops you will be applying it too and hit save. However to apply nutrient to a partial boundary or without a crop you might have to do some different things depending on the scenario.
Partial Block Applications
In order to apply chemical to part of a block you will need to use the row generator, right click on the block (long press on mobile) to open the row generator and enter the desired rows.
Product Details
In this step you specify what products have been applied and at what rates, if you have pre-configured custom brews earlier you can use the dropdown to automatically populate the products and rates and adjust them as needed.
You can add multiple products be pressing the "Add Product" button which will add another row of Product | Rate | Unit for you to fill out
all fields are required in these rows
This is where you add your adjuvants or anything else you put in your spray mix
Weather Details
At a bare minimum you will have to enter at least 1 Weather event, there's only 1 field that you will need to change to continue, and thats the "Time of the Recording", to indicate when you took this weather reading, everything else that is required is pre-populated with sensible defaults, change them as needed.
Current Legislation requires 3 weather events, before, during, after (10/08/2023)
