To be usable, the records do not have to be very elaborate. Only keep the records that you will use. Basic crop records should probably include an estimate of yield, such as loads of silage, bales of hay or loads of grain. They should include costs for fertilizer, lime, seed and chemicals. Other valuable inputs would be the results of soil tests, type of crop planted, manure applied, and type of pesticide applied. Some farmers feel that they can not take the time to weigh each load of a crop to determine the yield. I would probably agree with them. Here is what one farmer does. He records each load as it is put into storage. Then he measures the total amount that went into storage and divides by the number of loads to get a tons per load value. Silos that are filled and fed, then refilled, can be somewhat of a problem, but the problem can be surmounted if you really want the information. The farmer I am referring to simply puts a mark on the silo where the loading starts and stops (waiting 2 weeks after filling for settling). This is done each time the silo is filled. The method is not completely accurate, but it is workable and gives in formation that is better than nothing. Another fanner has a different method. He has relatively easy access to a scale. He weighs wagons periodically. Again, he keeps a record of the number of loads. He does a periodic check on his figures by also measuring the filled storage to see how accurate his wagon load estimates are. You may have a different way to handle the problem. The only answer 1 do not want is that you do nothing. 20,5X9 19,432 18,909 18,535 19,106 20,215 18,877 20,395 19,241 18,272 18,258 18,589 17,460
