Yield Center

Import and review yield records, manage rainfall and WUE, and use saved yield maps in Phase Ultra Spatial.

What this is

Yield Center helps manage harvest records, crop performance, rainfall assumptions and water use efficiency.

Where to find it

MoreData CentresYield Center.

From a paddock: Map → tap paddock → Yield.

What you can do

  • Import yield from John Deere

  • Import from spreadsheet

  • Import from shapefile

  • Add manual yield records

  • Log harvest loads into storage or delivered off the paddock

  • Review yield by crop

  • Compare paddocks and farms

  • View five-year trends

  • Edit GSR and annual rainfall assumptions

  • Review water use efficiency in kg/mm

For a yield map that must remain available in Phase, import it through Yield Center rather than uploading it temporarily in Spatial.

Harvest loads

Select Log a load in Yield Center, or open a paddock's harvest activity under Map → paddock → PlanLog a load. Choose Into storage for a silo or other structure, or Delivered off the paddock for grain sent straight to a receival site or buyer. Add the tonnes, docket details, grade or quality, truck and carrier where known.

The Harvest loads panel groups the season's stored and delivered loads by paddock and shows the resulting tonnes per hectare. Use Record as yield to create or update that paddock's yield record from its loads. A delivered load does not touch silo stock; it remains visible in the activity record, Harvest loads and Grain/Hay Storage commodity totals.

Use yield maps in Spatial

Phase Ultra Spatial can use a saved yield map when the selected paddock has at least three usable cells. Open MoreData CentresSpatial and add the yield layer. Spatial can also retrieve a John Deere yield map from its import window.

Crop-specific yield

Yield views are crop-specific where relevant. Wheat, canola, lupins and other crops should be reviewed separately unless a view clearly says it is combining crops.

Latest actual yield

Latest actual yield refers to the most recent harvest date, not simply the most recently imported record.

Rainfall and WUE

Water use efficiency depends on yield and rainfall assumptions. Review GSR, annual rainfall and any manual WUE override before comparing paddocks.

A manual WUE rainfall override should change the yield record calculation only. It should not replace the actual rainfall history for a saved weather station or rain gauge.

If you are checking rainfall WUE, review the rainfall values on the yield record first, then check the saved weather station or manual rain gauge history separately.

If yield looks wrong

Check:

  • Harvest date

  • Crop

  • Variety

  • Field match

  • Unit

  • Area

  • Rainfall assumption

  • Whether the record is imported, manual or from John Deere
