Relationship Between Farm, Block, and Harvest

A farm is divided into sections, commonly referred to as blocks. A farm can have multiple blocks, but a block can only be associated with a single farm. Each block can have multiple harvest records. A harvest represents the growing season, such as annual, semiannual, 90 days, or continuous.

The relationship between farm, block, and harvest:

  • A farm can have zero to many blocks.

  • A block can have zero to many harvests; however, only one is the current harvest period.

  • A harvest is identified by a unique combination of Block Code, Harvest Period, and Harvest Suffix. The harvest suffix is a subsection of a block that you can use to differentiate between the harvests on the same block.
