What you will see

  • With enough seed stock: the bags are issued in full and the trial goes to In field.
  • With too little: the bags on hand are issued, procurement and the operations manager are told, and a stock request is raised for the rest. The trial goes to In field.
  • A form to capture results, waiting on the agronomist you named. See Capture trial results.

Common problems

  • The variant you want is not offered. Choose its trial type first. Types and variants are set up by a tenant admin.
