GrowData Release 7.1.0
Check soil moisture while planning irrigation
A new Soil Moisture Report is available directly from the Scheduler, showing readings at 20 cm, 40 cm and 60 cm for up to the last three days.
This puts soil conditions alongside your irrigation plan, making it easier to decide when and where irrigation is needed.
Manage PLC alarms from Irrigate
EDGE and PLC alarms can now be configured from the Alarm Configuration page and sent directly to the farm controller.
This makes it easier to keep alarm settings in Irrigate and the PLC aligned without managing them separately.
Control fertigation injection rates
Target Flow Rate is now included with pump shifts sent to the PLC, giving Volume and Duration fertigation modes greater control over how quickly product is injected during a shift.
Irrigate – Bug fixes- Fixed high-flow and low-flow alarms so they are only checked while the pump is running.
- Fixed several errors that could occur when navigating between Irrigate pages, including Blocks, Valves and map views.
Track your harvest from field to shed
The new GrowData Harvest App gives you a simple way to scan and track lugs as they move through harvest. Capture who picked each lug, where it came from and where it moves next, giving you clearer harvest traceability and more accurate records across the farm.
In Ops, you can manage harvest places and pickers, review scan history and correct records when needed.
See chemical use and cost by block
A new Chemical Applications by Block report shows how much of each chemical has been applied to every block across Spray Diary, Dry Application and Fertigation.
Filter by property, block, variety, chemical or application method, then print, save to PDF or export to CSV. Historical pricing is retained with each application, giving you a clearer view of chemical use and costs over time.
Keep chemical safety information with the chemical
Safety Data Sheets can now be uploaded directly to a chemical record instead of storing a typed link.
You can view, replace or remove the SDS, keeping important chemical safety information easy to access from Ops.
Reduce chemical setup with improved APVMA search
APVMA product search now also retrieves the product’s active ingredient where available.
This reduces manual setup, improves the accuracy of your chemical records and supports better compliance and audit preparation.
Keep historical records while cleaning up Farm Setup
Blocks can now be archived and restored from Farm Setup. Archived blocks remain available in historical records and reports but are removed from new Spray Diary, Dry Application and Fertigation jobs.
This keeps current block selections cleaner without losing past farm records.
Find Farm Setup records faster
Farm Setup lists now include improved search, filtering, alphabetical sorting and pagination across employees, varieties, crops, blocks, sheds, machines, chemicals and more.
Larger farm setups are now much quicker to navigate on desktop and mobile.
Find people, equipment and chemicals faster when creating records
Key dropdowns in Spray Diary, Dry Application and Fertigation are now searchable, so you can type to find employees, machines, implements, sheds and chemicals instead of scrolling through long lists.
You can also create or edit these items directly from the dropdown without losing the information already entered in your record.
See which blocks are included before opening a record
Spray Diary, Dry Application and Fertigation lists now show a summary of the blocks included in each job.
For larger jobs, open the summary to see the full list of block groups and blocks, making records easier to identify at a glance.
Copy previous application records to save setup time
Copy & Paste is now available for Dry Application and Fertigation, matching the existing Spray Diary workflow.
Copied records keep the fertilisers and blocks while creating a new planned job with today’s date, saving time when repeating similar applications.
Clear accidentally entered job times
Spray Diary, Dry Application and Fertigation records now include a Clear Start/Finish Time option.
Dates also no longer automatically fill time fields, reducing accidental time entries when preparing planned records.
