You can choose whether to link the operation input lines to the area, production or a combination.

- In the Month cell, press F5 or click the Months icon to select the month of payment, budget code and bank account to which it is to be allocated.
- Click the green tick or press F10 to save data. Repeat for other operation types.
- Repeat all the above steps if any data entry is required for remaining Crop or Paddock Types.

Agrimaster displays the type of measure, such as Tonnes or hectares. |
|
Cost Per Unit |
