Mar 1, 2013

CropManage Workshop

Monterey County Agricultural Center Conference Room

 1432 Abbott St, Salinas CA 93901

Wednesday, March 13th / Tuesday, April 2nd 2013

(9 am – 11 am)

We will offer two hands-on workshops to learn in depth about the features of CropManage, a new Web-tool that provides decision support on irrigation and N management of lettuce.   Learn how to use CropManage for improving the efficiency of your farming operations or for adding value to your consulting services.  Wi-Fi internet access is available at our conference room so you are welcomed to bring a laptop or tablet computer so that you can follow along as we tour through the features of the software.   There should be sufficient time to answer questions as we cover the following topics: 

  1. Purpose and main features of software
  2. Getting started with CropManage (login, setting up new ranches, adding new plantings, fertilizers).
  3. Using CropManage for decision support and record keeping (soil nitrate quick test, recommendations on N fertilizer and irrigation schedules, maintaining fertilizer and irrigation records).
  4. Additional features (advanced settings, exporting data, integrating flow meter data).
  5. Discussion of new features or changes needed.

To keep the group size manageable so that we can provide individual help, we would like to limit each workshop to 20 participants.  Please RSVP in advance by sending an email to  larriaga@ucdavis.edu with the subject heading “CropManage workshop” and let us know which workshop (March 13 or April 2) you will be attending and the number of participants in your group.  We will email you a confirmation

Hope to see you soon,

Michael Cahn
