Ensure planning is always correct, & actual tasks are at <strong>the</strong> right time, using <strong>the</strong> correct resources.<br />
By configuring your farms best practice production methods and tasks for producing each variety of produce,<br />
you can “implement best practice” to automatically create all recommended farming tasks based on your<br />
farm’s best practices. Implementing best practice benefits <strong>the</strong> farm by:<br />
� Saving managements time by automatically creating farm tasks in <strong>the</strong> farm diary<br />
� Automatically creating budgets for each cost center<br />
� Enforcing <strong>the</strong> ‘best practice’ processes to be inserted into <strong>the</strong> farm diary<br />
Using <strong>the</strong> Best Practice system allows your farm to continually improve your production processes and <strong>the</strong><br />
accuracy of <strong>the</strong> processes being used by iterative regular review.<br />
Best Practice features<br />
� Create Production Tasks to define <strong>the</strong> common tasks performed during <strong>the</strong> production process<br />
� Build Production Methods to represent <strong>the</strong> best practice for each produce or variety<br />
� Define Production Groups that groups which tasks apply to <strong>the</strong> production of each variety & <strong>the</strong><br />
quantity or labor, equipment, materials per area of land worked on.<br />
� Implement best practice onto a selected area of land to automatically create all tasks<br />
� Automatic calculation of budgeting information in <strong>the</strong> background when a best practice is<br />

If you don’t plan, <strong>the</strong>n you plan to fail. Create budgets with only a few clicks!<br />
<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> makes it easy to create budgets for <strong>the</strong> entire farm, no matter how many<br />
varieties you are growing, and regardless of <strong>the</strong> number of plantings. Make your farm a lean manufacturer by<br />
improving JIT delivery and accuracy of materials ordering. Financial decisions can be improved by having access<br />
to comprehensive budgeting information before each season commences.<br />
Reduce <strong>the</strong> risk of cash flow shocks, while maximizing your farm’s cash flow position by planning ahead using<br />
<strong>the</strong> Budgeting information produced by <strong>the</strong> system.<br />
Budgeting features<br />
� Budgets create estimates for <strong>the</strong> cost AND quantity of labor, equipment, AND <strong>the</strong> date that <strong>the</strong><br />
resource will be consumed or applied<br />
� Easily detect when budgets have been missed, and take corrective action quickly to protect cash flow<br />
position<br />
� Compare actual costs with estimated costs at any time in real time<br />
� Analyze budget figures and actual figures grouped by land, produce, farm, site, produce type, or<br />
variety; or any combination of those selections<br />
� Use estimated quantities of materials to assist with <strong>the</strong> creation of purchase orders and JIT supply from<br />
materials providers<br />
� Define labor costs for each type of labor rate and pay rate<br />
� Define hourly, or ‘per running unit’ cost for equipment and plant or machinery<br />

Reducing waste, shrinkage, and ensuring traceability is critical to low production costs.<br />
The inventory module provides a high level of accountability of production materials, allowing multi-site and multi<br />
warehouse tracking of all farming materials at all times. Access to accurate stock take information of all farm materials is<br />
critical for improving ordering accuracy and cash flow. Shrinkage or waste can be easily detected and traced back to<br />
operational areas, departments, or employees, allowing <strong>the</strong> farm to maximize return on investment for all materials.<br />
Easily allocate traceability information for all inventories, allowing rapid recalls and traceability processes to meet <strong>the</strong><br />
highest international farming and food safety standards. Simple stock-take processes ensure continual accuracy of<br />
stock-take information across <strong>the</strong> entire farm.<br />
Optionally create inventory on <strong>the</strong> fly - no need to record all purchases when <strong>the</strong>y arrive, reduces data entry and<br />
administrative requirements. This feature is optional and can be disabled.<br />
Inventory features<br />
� Inventory can be accessed based on an employee’s site<br />
permissions, allowing management to provide access to only<br />
selected inventory at selected sites to a specific employee. This<br />
feature is especially useful for farms that have multiple sites that<br />
are geographically isolated from one ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

Traceability can make or break a farm, it’s no longer an ‘optional’ regulatory requirement.<br />
<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> provides a strong platform for accurate recording of traceability<br />
information, via a variety of easy and logical methods. Risk exposure to <strong>the</strong> farm is greatly reduced by<br />
having highly granular traceability, which in turn reduces financial exposure to <strong>the</strong> farm should a recall<br />
become necessary. Accurate traceability reduces <strong>the</strong> quantity of fruit/vegetables in a recall, and <strong>the</strong>refore<br />
reduces <strong>the</strong> farms financial exposure.<br />
Best practice standards for farming such as BRC, GlobalGAP, ISO (and many more) are supported by <strong>the</strong><br />
system, making audits less expensive, and compliance costs lower.<br />
The traceability systems in <strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> constitutes thousands of processes that are<br />
integrated throughout <strong>the</strong> entire system, forcing users to record correct traceability details at <strong>the</strong> correct<br />
time.<br />
<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> minimizes <strong>the</strong> data capture and entry costs associated with traceability<br />

� View, edit, add any and all activities at a farm (spray, irrigation, harvest, planting, etc)<br />
� View historical data related to a specific area of land within <strong>the</strong> farm (historical harvest and yield information, soil<br />
analysis, plant analysis, organic testing etc)<br />
� Add tasks to <strong>the</strong> farms “scheduled tasks” list; staff at <strong>the</strong> farm (ei<strong>the</strong>r management or teams) will <strong>the</strong>n be alerted to<br />
<strong>the</strong> new task and perform <strong>the</strong> work and mark <strong>the</strong> work as “completed”. The tasks you can add include full inventory<br />
(eg: chemicals and fertilizer) and also allows you to “draw” on a map of <strong>the</strong> farm to highlight areas of interest or<br />
tractor instructions.<br />
� View progress of tasks you have suggested be performed at <strong>the</strong> farm<br />
� Make observations that can be assigned to a specific area of land, even attach documents (PDF, DOC etc), or insert<br />
pictures. You can use <strong>the</strong> farms maps to “draw” on a “copy” of <strong>the</strong>ir map to highlight an area of land (eg: an area<br />
where <strong>the</strong>re is a pest infestation etc)<br />

Benefits for Agronomists & Traceability Consultants<br />
<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> provides farm consultants, co-operatives, and agronomists<br />
with a massive range of benefits including:<br />
� Remote access to each farms information gives <strong>the</strong> consultant/agronomist <strong>the</strong> ability<br />
to always keep up to date with <strong>the</strong> activities on every farm that is being<br />
monitored. The agronomist will never have to say “oh, I didn’t know you sprayed<br />
that last week”….<br />
� Remote access greatly reduces <strong>the</strong> risk of <strong>the</strong> consultant/agronomist missing an<br />
opportunity to provide advice, and ultimately increases <strong>the</strong> farms profit, and<br />
increases <strong>the</strong> “quality of service” provided by <strong>the</strong> consultant.<br />
� TSL <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> allows <strong>the</strong> agronomist to reduce costs and increase<br />
efficiency by rapidly monitoring many farms at once; all from <strong>the</strong> office. Ultimate<br />
results for <strong>the</strong> agronomy company are a reduction in <strong>the</strong> cost of on-site farm visits,<br />
vehicle costs, fuel, reduced time taken to monitor farms, and reduced<br />
telecommunication expenses. Long story short, <strong>the</strong> agronomy company saves<br />
money.<br />
� One agronomist can service more farms at <strong>the</strong> same time, and communicate rapidly<br />
through <strong>the</strong> Alerts system.<br />
� By introducing <strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> <strong>Farm</strong> Management <strong>ERP</strong> to your farm clients, you are giving<br />
<strong>the</strong>m farm planning, monitoring, and traceability record keeping tool. You take <strong>the</strong><br />
credit for this!<br />

Training employees for our standards and<br />
compliance requirements was time<br />
consuming and had to be repeated over and<br />

<strong>Farm</strong> managers often had difficulty knowing<br />
<strong>the</strong> progress of each team; resulting in<br />
missed opportunities to take corrective<br />
actions or reassign teams to different tasks<br />
to get full value from <strong>the</strong> labor. Often farm<br />

from <strong>the</strong> farming areas.<br />
Processes in <strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> enforce <strong>the</strong><br />

meaning <strong>the</strong> training for employees on <strong>the</strong>se<br />
points is much simpler because <strong>the</strong>y are<br />
being forced to comply simply by using <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> centralizes all farm task<br />
information allowing for a central<br />
monitoring system where each farm<br />

Summary of benefits based on client feedback<br />
Often we would have nasty cash flow<br />
surprises where we had miscalculated <strong>the</strong><br />
quantity of materials & labor, or used more<br />
materials during production due to<br />
environmental or pest reasons.<br />
Implementing best practices was often time<br />
consuming and <strong>the</strong>se practices were often<br />
forgotten by our employees if we didn’t<br />
continually harass <strong>the</strong>m into using <strong>the</strong><br />
methods required.<br />
software so we have reduced <strong>the</strong> cost of<br />
inducting new employees.<br />
<strong><strong>Farm</strong>Soft</strong> gives us daily reports on our use of<br />
individual materials that is over <strong>the</strong><br />
predicted [budgeted] amount. The cash<br />
difference can be seen quickly and<br />
appropriate action can be taken.<br />
The <strong>Farm</strong> software guides our employees<br />
through <strong>the</strong>ir tasks and requires <strong>the</strong>m to<br />
‘tick off’ each process or duty as it is being<br />
done. This forces <strong>the</strong> employee to do things<br />
<strong>the</strong> way we want <strong>the</strong>m done, and alerts us if<br />
<strong>the</strong>y try to perform tasks incorrectly. We<br />
also use <strong>the</strong> Best Practice module to create<br />
our tasks, we have configured <strong>the</strong> best<br />
practice processes for our farm, and now<br />
every time we produce a selected variety,<br />
<strong>the</strong> best plan for production is automatically<br />
created for us. We <strong>the</strong>n edit this plan to suit<br />
<strong>the</strong> season or environmental factors.<br />
