After your selections are made click on the export button and the save will be confirmed.

The purpose is to allow users to import some or all of the fields from another farm. It will facilitate the Import/Export process if you put the fields to be imported in one or more subfarms.

The field, soil test, and cropping data will be imported for the fields selected. There are options to import the application data as well.

Select Farm To Import – First select a farm file to import. This will populate the dual list box with all of the fields in the farm. If subfarms exist in the selected farm the Subfarms radio button will be enabled. You may select all or a subset of the fields for import.

Field selection method

•All lists all of the fields in the selected list.

•Fields lists all of the fields in the unselected list.

•Subfarms lists all of the subfarm names in the unselected list.

Application selection defaults to importing all applications. You may uncheck any of the applications you do not wish to import.

Farm Prefix will be added to field or source names for the imported fields if these names are duplicates of those in the existing database.  The prefix is used to make these names unique.

Field Prefix defines the prefix to be used for all imported fields (not just duplicates).

Crop Years refer to soil test, cropping and application data that will be imported.

Accept uses the selected setup  to import the data.

Export data | Fields will export the selected fields and data to a new empty farm database file. It will facilitate the Import/Export process if you put the fields to be exported in one or more subfarms.

The Import/Export process is:
