Block Descriptors

Block descriptors are free-form text fields that you can use to identify information about your block such as a legal or specific description of the land. For example, south-facing hillside location or Napa river valley, extending up the east-facing gentle slope.

Block descriptors enable you to set up logical sub-blocks. When performing farming operations you can associate a block descriptor to the operation to indicate that this operation was against a sub-block. This is informational only and does not impact the level at which the system calculates costs. For example, enter block descriptors which represent two sprinkler systems that service the block. When performing an irrigation operation, you can select which sprinkler system was used by the irrigation operation.

To add block descriptors, enter a description of the logical sub-block, the system assigns a block descriptor ID. You can set up multiple rows of 30 character free-form text messages.
