Built on a working farm · rebuilt here every week

The whole farm, in one app.

Fields and crop plans, cattle, grain bins, irrigation, equipment, spray records and the books — kept in one place by a mixed grain and cattle farm in southern Alberta, and shared as source. Free for farms to use.

Try the demo farm → The code on GitHub Run it yourself

No sign-up. The demo's farm is made up and runs entirely in your browser.

The farm map: satellite imagery with pivot circles and field names, the river running through it.

A look around

Five screens from the app. The map and the bin yard are the farm's own; the other three are the demo's made-up farm. None of them show anyone's money.

The rotation planner: four years of history beside the years being planned, one year open for editing.
Four years back and four years forward on one screen. A year is opened, filled in and saved shut; the app says what may follow what, what a herbicide label still forbids, and how many acres of each crop that leaves.
The farm's own bin yard from above, every bin numbered and coloured by whether there is grain in it, whether a fan is running and whether heat is on.
The yard as it stands, every bin numbered where it actually is, coloured by what is in it and whether its fan or heater is running. Behind each one: what went in by field and crop from weighed truckloads, cable readings and moisture tests.
The grazing summary: grazeable acres, carrying capacity and herd needs in animal-unit days, the season's rain against the forage it should grow.
What the grass will carry against what the herd needs, in animal-unit days, with the season's rain against the forage it usually grows. On the map beside it, paddocks are shaded by what the satellite sees growing, and cattle are kept off ground a spray label has not finished with.
A budget by crop: acres, yield, price, revenue, cost per acre and margin, with the year's totals above.
Acres, yield, price, cost and margin by crop, from the farm's own records rather than a guess — with the bookkeeping read in from QuickBooks where a farm uses it.
The farm map with pivots and field names on satellite imagery.
Every boundary, pivot and gate, with the legal land description, and your own position on it while you are out there. This one is the real farm. Water lines, soil survey, satellite growth and the rest are layers you turn on when you want them.

What it keeps track of

One app, because a farm is one business.

Fields and crops

Crop plans and rotation rules, seeding and harvest progress, yields by field, soil tests and fertility.

Grain

Bins and what is in them, weigh-in by truckload, scale tickets, contracts, deliveries and drying.

Cattle

Herds and pastures, grazing days, water, winter feed budgets by energy, and the paperwork.

Irrigation

Pivots, water licences and allotments, soil moisture, and what the season's water will stretch to.

Equipment

Service due, work orders, warranties, fuel and trucking costs, and the field operations machines report.

Spraying and inputs

What went on each field, the product labels behind it, re-cropping and grazing restrictions, invoices.

The books

Field costs, budgets, break-even, cash flow and lender reports, read in from QuickBooks.

Reports and records

The forms a farm actually has to file, filled from its own records and downloaded as PDF or a spreadsheet.

The app on a phone: large tiles for pivots, soil moisture, the to-do list, the map, scouting and weighing a load.

Made for a phone, out in the field

Most of this gets used standing in a field or beside a bin, often with one bar of signal and a glove on.

  • Installs to the home screen like an app, on iPhone or Android.
  • Keeps working with no signal, and catches up when it finds some.
  • Photograph a scale ticket and the weight fills itself in.
  • Pin a weed, a bug or a broken gate with a photo, where you are standing.
  • Big buttons, few words, and the day's work first.

How to try it

The demo runs a made-up farm entirely in your browser: nothing to install, nothing to sign up for, and nothing you type leaves your machine. To run it for your own farm, follow SETUP.md — it needs a free Supabase project and a free Netlify account, and the whole thing fits in their free tiers for one farm.

Open the demo This week's release Ask a question

A prototype, shared as-is. There is no warranty and no support. Formulas, figures and advice in it may be wrong — check anything that matters against your own records and your own agronomist, accountant or vet. The licence is PolyForm Noncommercial with an added permission for farms: free for a farm to run its own operation on, not for resale. It is rebuilt and republished here every week, so what is here is what the farm is using.
