The field spreadable acres are displayed on this tab. The spreadable acres are automatically imported when you import the field data on the SnapMaps Fields tab.

 

Spreadable acres may be affected when features change on the SnapMaps website for your farm. User made features like wells, sink holes and manure prohibited acres all effect spreadable acres. Base features like Map Symbols, SWQMA, Silurian Dolomite and others may also affect spreadable acres. When you make changes to you farm on the map website always check this tab for changes.

 

You cannot dismiss individual cells or columns on this tab. Individual rows may be dismissed/activated (toggle the orange cells) with a Ctrl-Click on the row header cells.  You may also lock field spreadable acres by going to the field tab and clicking on the Spreadable Acres button to bring up the Manage Field Acres window. Here you can lock field spreadable acres checking the field verified check boxes. Be sure to click on the  Save  button to save your changes and exit the window.

 

         

 

When you first run a new version of SnapPlus, upload your farm data to the website then do a download to get any changes to the base features (Map Symbols, SWQMA, ...). These changes may also show up as differences on the SnapMaps Field, Restrictions and Acres tabs.

 

Non-Permitted Farms

Because the spreadable acres Field Verified box is checked for field 08, the field 08 row in SnapMap Acres is bold Italic indicating a difference but it can not be imported.

CAFO (WPDES Permitted) Farms

If the farm is a CAFO, you’ll see the additional columns related to manure spreading restrictions.

Manure spreadable acres are the cropped acres minus any designated manure prohibited areas from the maps.

Manure prohibited acres are the areas that are cropped but that can't have manure. These include all SWQMA no-manure areas and other manure prohibition areas shown on the maps.

The text, above the grid, reflects the SWQMA Manure Application Spreading Strategies selected for annual and perennial crops on the Farms Screen.
