Rate and Rate Unit
treatment fields are the primary fields used to calculate
treatment product amounts for reports. Use the Treatment Units option in
Settings window (Window, Settings, Treatment tab) to change display of
standard rate units between US or Metric.
The Other Rate and
Unit treatment fields are “alternative” rate fields. The
purpose of Other Rate is to express a different view of the primary
rate. Some examples are:
- Product based unit such as L/HA when rate is on AI basis such as
G A/HA.
- US unit such as QT/A when primary rate is a metric unit such as
L/HA.
- Volume based unit such as %V/V for an area based unit such as
L/HA.
ARM calculates the Other (alternative) Rate value when the Rate, Rate
Unit, and Other Rate Unit fields are entered or changed. Other Rate
is calculated using a product amount conversion, similar to the
calculations for the Spray/Seeding Plan report. Several other data entry
fields can influence the calculation of treatment product amounts, and
thus also influence the calculation of Other Rate:
- Form Conc
- Form Type
- Rate
- Rate Unit
- Spray Volume and Unit
- Mix Size and Unit
- Plot Size
- Seeding Rate and Unit (for calculations based on seeding rate)
The F5 - User Help displayed in the treatment editor also contains
information related to Rate/Unit and Other Rate/Unit
treatment fields. |
