    There should be an option to put in machine type and country, then select the option to download database

    Got one last year. If you're getting one, get one with the grass seeder, they are a super job.
    Went up to a guy in the north last year, he does very little reseeding, but he uses one of these to put out 1/4 bag of grassseed on a lot of the farm every year. Ive never seen grass like his place.

    Down on the bottom, press 'selection' spreader and country should come up with option to update database. Once that is done go to 'fertilizer service ' at the bottom and then select the different fields.

    The rotoseeder. Takes 3 bags works off the tractor electrics. Will spread 6 meters. Simple but good enough for farmer work.
    I got the harrow last year because of the poaching done in 2012. It was very handy when doing a field to be able to put out some seed on damaged areas.

    Got it.
    That's a brilliant app. Better than using the book all the time.
    Father will like it too
