We recommend submitting your field records through SurveyStack.


Why? This online tool allows you to easily access and update your field management records throughout the year from your computer or mobile device. It includes features—like drop down selection boxes and the ability to quickly copy similar entries—that make entering your records a breeze. It also helps us quickly organize and analyze your records, which means we can send you insights and reports sooner!

All farmers with an email address have a SurveyStack account created for them automatically.

If you are new to the project, please hang tight — we will let you know by email when you’ve been signed up!
