App links farm data, info stays close at hand Going mobile | Farm At Hand application can share farm data between phone and tablet devices and desktop computers

By MICHAEL RAINE, Western Producer staff

“Go, look over at the east place in the bins over there. I know there’s 3,500 bushels of durum around. If not there, then at that land we rented south of town in those bins.”

“What year is the 9220? They need it at the parts counter?”

“When does that delivery contract come up?”

“That crop looks great. What was the seeding rate?”

Do these phrases sound familiar?

On many farms, this type of information is kept in shirt pocket notebooks, on office clipboards or worse yet, inside the heads of one or two farmers in the operation.

Two young Saskatoon entrepreneurs believe they have found a better way using the ubiquitous smartphones that are already on the belt or in the pocket beside the notebook.

Farm At Hand is a software application for smartphones and tablet computers.

Kim Keller’s family farms at Gronlid in northeastern Saskatchewan and friend Himanshu Singh owns a software development company.

“Kim’s family used clipboards. Not very convenient,” said Singh. Despite being a cutting edge operation, storing and shifting data about the daily business activities and inventory relied largely on paper and pen.

“It started out as a simple app to create a virtual grain bin program. It would give you an instant inventory and it could be shared with others on the farm,” he said.

“One thing led to another and pretty soon we realized that the whole farm needed to tracked. So we created a virtual farm.”

Singh’s company, QuintApps, usually works on more urban oriented software and website development. However, he said the agriculture market looked like it had a lot of need and prairie farmers are known for adopting useful technology. He decided the two would spell success.

“We started development at the end of February and went full steam, aiming for an April 1 release. We didn’t make it, but we have it out now,” he said.

“We believe it will help farmers be more productive. They The Western Producer

can enter information into the smartphone the way they used to with a notebook.”

The application sends the information to the cloud, which is a large networked computer at a high security server farm owned by internet giant Amazon.

“Data security is paramount for us,” Singh said.

“We only use the best (systems). We know farmers are very protective of their information and we designed for that from the outset. It’s password protected.”

Farmers can enter data into the system as they load grain into a bin, agree to a contract or buy or service machinery.

If multiple operators enter data, it is shared instantly between smartphones, tablets and desk top computers via the farmathand.com website.

“If there isn’t any cellular service, then the user can enter the data and it will be stored until the next time the phone connects and when it does the app will automatically update the information,” Singh said.

The first version was compatible with Apple’s IPhone and IPod Touch. An IPad application and Blackberry versions have since been released and an Android operating system version is also complete.

“Right now we are looking for feedback from users,” he said.

“It’s a free app. We think that way we are getting it into as many farmers’ hands as possible so they can tell us how to make it better in its next release.”

QuintApps is adding a Microsoft Excel compatible export feature and refining the product based on user comments.

In addition to managing physical inventories, the app also stores data about contracts, commodity deliveries, field information and machinery fleet data. It has an integrated calendar and a set of utilities such as metric conversions for agriculture.

The application is available through the ITunes online store at itunes.apple.com. For more information, visit www. farmathand.com.

Nutrient removal app now on smartphones

By RON LYSENG, Western Producer staff The Mosaic Nutrient Removal program that many farmers use to determine fertilizer requirements is now available as a free app for smartphones.

The software, based on hundreds of thousands of soil samples, tells a farmer how many units of each nutrient are extracted from the soil for each unit of crop removed from the field, said Kyle Freeman, manager of new product development at Mosaic.

Fertility specialists had been developing nutrient removal formulas using conventional paper charts long before they had access to modern computer technology.

“The data that agronomists and farmers use today was developed by the International Plant Nutrition Institute,” said Freeman.

The Institute is an independent third party group funded by the fertilizer industry.

“Their research data is openly available to everyone in the industry, so the nutrient removal tables are not exclusive to Mosaic.”

The free Nutrient Removal App is available for Android and Apple platforms and covers the 36 most popular crops grown in North America, including those common on the Prairies.

It’s the same program that’s on Mosaic’s Back-to-Basics website. It’s also the same information available on other websites from competing fertilizer companies, Freeman said.

“Every time you haul a bushel of crop off the field, you need to know how much of each nutrient went along with that crop. So yield is the only factor you need to punch into the program,” he said.

“The tables are based solely on yield. It doesn’t consider weather or pests or any other mitigating factors. It’s purely yield-based. For example, if you harvest a 50 bushel bean crop, you need to figure out how much nitrogen, sulfur, potassium, phosphorus and magnesium you’ve removed.”

Freeman said farmers often concentrate too much on nitrogen and overlook the importance of other nutrients.

“That’s because nitrogen has the most dramatic impact,” he said. “It’s the most expensive nutrient and it’s the one nutrient that lets the farmer actually see the dollar return when he’s

driving the combine.”

Freeman said the extra attention given to nitrogen is one of the main reasons Mosaic made the Nutrient Removal program available as a portable app. The other reason for the app shows up in soil tests.

“There was a major soil survey in 2010 showing a significant reduction in the amounts of P and K in the ground,” he said.

“Yields were going up, along with fertilizer rates going up.

But the balance was slipping. Farmers were extracting more than they were putting back into the soil. Soil can provide only so many nutrient units naturally.”

Freeman said farmers should be more aware of the removal of all nutrients. The Nutrient Removal table tells the farmer that “if you’re pulling off X number of bushels, then you’re also removing Y number of nutrients, not just nitrogen.”

He said the app is the first version the company has put together. The site will be updated on a regular basis as more data becomes available.

Crop yields will continue to rise as better varieties become available, fertilizer use improves and farming practices in general improve.

“With that in mind, we expect to make the app more geographic specific, but we’re not quite at that point yet,” he said.

“I did a lot of work on the Green-Seeker, so I know how important regionalized calibration can be.”

Freeman, who was part of the Oklahoma State University team that developed the GreenSeeker, knows it needs careful calibration down to narrow bands of soil and climatic conditions.

Soil scientists are now developing GreenSeeker calibrations that apply to different soil types, but Freeman doesn’t think the Nutrient Removal program will be that precise.

“It will probably be regionalized to the level of the northern Great Plains, which includes the three prairie provinces.”

Freeman said the data was already in table format, as displayed in Back-to-Basics.

“Obviously we can’t put a whole table on a small screen, but in table format, it easier to edit so the user sees only the column he needs to see for each crop.

“You enter the crop. Enter your target yield and suddenly there it is on your screen. Once you’ve downloaded it, you no longer need an internet connection to run the program.”

Farmers using the app can access data from their truck, tractor, fertilizer dealer or coffee shop.

Freeman said 40 percent of crop yield can be attributed to what agronomists call the 4 Rs: • right source of fertilizer • right rate • right place • right time For a free copy of the app, go to www.back-to-basics.net/ nutrientremoval/ or visit the App Store or the Android Market. w w w . p r o d u c e r . c o m

Expert ag chem advice found online Pesticide program online service provides fast answers to application questions

By MICHAEL RAINE, Western Producer staff The wide variety of pest control choices available to farmers can make it difficult to decide which products to choose.

Enter Chris Hawkins, who created an online pest control advisory service called AgChemExpert to make the decision a bit easier.

Hawkins, a pest control adviser from Oak Bluff, Man., with 12 years experience, hired a computer programmer to build the website based tool.

The system allows users to identify the crop they plan to plant and the pests they want to control. It then provides a summary of all the options available on the Prairies. Prices are included in many cases.

As well, users receive spraying tips, water advice, conversion calculators, industry phone numbers, internet links and resources and tutorials to help them get started.

Clients can save and print individual advice reports.

“I wanted something that people could use without getting that feeling that they might break it,” Hawkins said.

“I wanted them to be able to learn from it, too.”

Users can access additional information about products and applications by placing their cursor over the report items. This brings up an information box that contains detailed product information such as the chemical name, active ingredient amount and manufacturer.

When grassy and broadleaf weed combinations are identified, the system identifies the combination control products as well as the individual products for those weeds. This allows for greater decision making options or tank mixing.

The reports also include information about whether a surfactant is required for liquid products or if additions of ammonium sulfate can be made.

Found at www.agchemexpert.com, the system covers most prairie crops, with the exception of lentils, chickpeas, sunflowers, soybeans, dry beans and corn.

“It’s a beast,” Hawkins said.

“It evolves and grows and I’m constantly updating it. Corn, soybeans and dry beans are underway now and will soon be added.”

New products appear as they are approved by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency.

Hawkins said the tool gives producers and agronomists the opportunity to rapidly make decisions about products they might not have considered.

“To be honest, most producers, and even agronomists, like to go with what they know,” he said.

“And there are a lot of great new products out there, and some older options that they might get better control with, or save some money on.”

The design is mobile device friendly and works independently of the tablet, computer or smartphone on which it is running because it is internet-based.

Savvy Farmer from Guelph, Ont., is a similar product.

Hawkins’ service costs $299 for a year’s subscription and includes a 30 minute, full featured trial available on the website.

Software helps producers design best sheep rations  SheepBytes | The latest in internet technology and nutrient requirement recommendations help fine-tune rations for a variety of situations

By MARY MacARTHUR, Western Producer staff

Sheep producers now have access to a new web-based software program to help them create the most cost efficient feed rations and boost profitability.  Feed is the biggest input cost for lamb producers, and the SheepBytes program can help save them thousands of dollars, said Sue Hosford, Alberta Agriculture’s sheep industry specialist.  “Feed costs are the biggest cost for lamb producers,� she said. “Overfeeding or underfeeding directly hits the pocketbooks.�  Hosford said a traceability study a few years ago found that the feed costs of finishing a lamb was $65 per head for top producers and $110 for the least efficient producers.  “There are huge opportunities to improve efficiency,� she said.  SheepBytes is not a new program. It was originally designed as a DOS based feed program by Alberta Agriculture staff in the 1990s.   The latest version looks nothing like its original form with its floppy discs that fit into computer slots, said Margaret Cook, executive director of Alberta Lamb Producers.  The refined program uses cloud computing technology and the latest National Research Council nutrient requirement recommendations to help fine-tune rations for different stages of production, body weight and weather conditions. 

Sheep haven’t changed but the tools to make them more profitable have. SheepBytes makes creating rations simpler and more feed efficient. | FILE PHOTO

“With feed as 40 percent of the cost of raising sheep, this is especially important,� said Cook.  “The more efficient is the feed, the more profit potential.�  Producers can use programs like SheepBytes to identify how to become more efficient, she said. Producers can use their own feed test results or use the generic feed library.  Rations can be formulated for lambs, ewes and rams at any stage of production. Hosford said producers could enter wind chill and other environmental factors that affect feed use.  The data can also be used on mobile devices.  Feed specialists can design rations and adjust feed and mineral formulations to help producers achieve the most efficient feed use.  Eric Verstappen, a sheep producer from High Prairie, Alta., and test user, said the program identified a feeding error on his farm and helped make feed improvements.  Hosford said many of the test users have already bought the ration-balancing program. Test users included producers, veterinarians, nutritionists, consultants and students and staff from Lakeland and Olds colleges.  “That was pretty encouraging,� said Hosford.  “We’re hoping as more people use it, word will spread.�
