TL;DR

  • Products are any inputs used in a treatment job (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, fertilizers, copper products, wetting agents, biologicals, micronutrients).

  • Add products in Farm settings → Products & Treatments → Add New, or on the fly while logging a job.

  • Use the exact label name and add optional details (manufacturer, registration, expiry, composition, requirements) for better traceability and alerts.In Farmable, products refer to any input you use during a treatment job. This includes everything from insecticides to fertilizers and copper-based treatments.

What Is a Product?

A product is any treatment input applied during a job. This includes:

  • Herbicides

  • Fungicides

  • Insecticides

  • Fertilizers

  • Copper products

  • Wetting agents

  • Biologicals or micronutrients

💡 Tip: Add each product individually, using the exact name from the product label. You can include additional notes for reference or compliance.

Keeping an up-to-date product list not only simplifies logging jobs but also improves your farm’s traceability, audit readiness, and compliance with spray diary requirements.


You can either add all your products before the season starts, or add them directly while logging jobs.
​

We recommend setting up your product list in advance for quick job logging, audit-ready documentation, and automatic product usage alerts.
