How do I set Initial Nitrogen in Granular Nitrogen?

Overview:

Initial nitrogen is set in the user interface for the total (or individually for NO3/NH4) amount of nitrogen for 0-24 inches and the date for initial nitrogen.

• Default is 42 pounds of total nitrogen on October 1 preceding the year when the crop will be grown.
• Default represents the average of data collected from soil samples taken in enrolled fields for the 2014 and 2015 growing seasons and is a good starting point.
• Adjust up or down from this based on local and field needs.

Prerequisites:

• Fields enrolled in Granular Nitrogen

Process:

1. Login to Granular Insights and navigate to the Operation.
2. Click on Nitrogen from the left panel.
3. Navigate to a field and click on the Initial N value for that field.
4. Click any of the options and enter the value(s):  Total N (ppm), OR Total N (lbs N/ac), OR NO3 & NH4 (ppm).
5. Enter a Date for your Initial N start date.
6. Enter the Total N and/or NO3 & NH4 (ppm) values.
7. Click Save.

Initial N values can also be added in bulk to fields:

1. Click the checkboxes next to the fields to add an Initial Nitrogen value to.
2. Click on the Edit Field Details box in the lower right corner.
3. Select the Initial N option from the pop-up window.
