How do I set the effectiveness of Lime?
Overview:
In Field360 Studio, you can add and edit the effectiveness level of a Lime fertilizer product.
Requirements:
- Access to Field360 Studio.
- A Lime product already added to the grower/Operation list in Setup>>Fertilizers.
Process:
- Click on Setup from the menu bar.
- Select Fertilizers from the drop-down menu.
- Click on the Lime product already setup in the Fertility Editor for that Operation.
- Click the
button from the Fertilizer Editor.
- Type in a new Product Lot Name in the upper right corner for the new Lime product.
- Adjust any Units, Costs, Rounding, and Set Points and Rates for the product as needed for this Operation.
- Click on the Name drop-down and select the appropriate nutrient name for the effectiveness expression used (CCE, ENP, ECCE, ENV, etc..) *Note: Our pre-loaded calculators for Lime ONLY uses the variable CCE in their calculations.

Note: F360 studio displays the CCE(calcium carbonate equivalent) which is a % of the ECCE(Effective calcium carbonate equivalent) which is tonnage. You will need to convert the ECCE to CCE. For example if they have 1600 ECCE they will take 1600/2000 =.80 Enter 80 for the CCE in the nutrient analysis.
