Good records support farm management, traceability, certification and customer confidence. Documentation should be consistent with the programme and buyer requirements.
Records to maintain
- Field maps, field history and crop rotation plan.
- Seed, planting material, input purchase, preparation and application records.
- Labour or activity logs, scouting, harvest volumes and post-harvest handling.
- Lot identification, storage locations, transport details, invoices and buyer records.
Important: Local production, animal-health, certification and scheme requirements vary. Confirm details with the competent state authority or a qualified local adviser before spending or applying inputs.
