Crop rotation planning

Crop rotation and cropping structure for the whole farm

Assign crops to fields and lay out the cropping structure for the season. Nirby keeps crop history and previous crops in order and uses them for fertiliser planning, treatments and records.

  • 01

    Cropping structure for the season

    See what grows on every field and how many hectares each crop takes.

  • 02

    Crop history and previous crops

    Every field has its full history, with no digging through notes.

  • 03

    Data for the whole system

    The rotation feeds fertiliser plans, treatments and records.

FAQ: crop rotation planning

Frequently asked questions about crop rotation planning

How do I plan crop rotation in Nirby?

Assign crops to fields for a season. Nirby builds the farm's cropping structure and records crop history and previous crops for every field.

Why keep crop rotation in software?

Because the same data is needed in many places: the fertiliser plan, treatments, spray records and cost analysis. Entered once, it works across the system.

Does Nirby show the cropping structure?

Yes. You see each crop's area and share of the cropping structure for the current season.

Can I add cadastral and payment parcels?

Yes. Nirby handles cadastral and payment parcels and field groups, which makes a large farm easier to organise.

Does crop history carry over to later years?

Yes. Crops, previous crops and treatments from past seasons stay in the field history and are used for planning the next ones.

Which module includes crop rotation planning?

Crop rotation planning is in Nirby's management module, billed per hectare per year. Digital field records are in the free base version.

For advisers, laboratories and distributors

Do you work with farmers? Let’s build something together.

Nirby can connect farmers, advisers, laboratories, distributors and crop buyers around the same data. Tell us how you work and we’ll suggest a practical partnership model.

  • 01

    Distributors & advisers

    Fertilisers, crop protection, seed and machinery

    Add fertiliser plans, application maps and crop monitoring to your offer. Advisers can work from the same field data as the farmer and discuss specific management zones instead of relying on whole-field averages.

  • 02

    Soil sampling companies

    Laboratories and field crews

    We define sampling zones from satellite imagery and turn lab results into nutrient maps and precision fertiliser plans. You collect the samples; the farmer receives clear recommendations and machine-ready files.

  • 03

    Agri-food supply chain

    Processors, crop buyers and producer groups

    Bring supplier field-operation and crop-protection records into one digital standard. That makes crop traceability, reporting and contract-growing programmes easier to manage.
