App to help mark out paddocks

Siamsa Sessions · 13-05-2016 09:52AM #1

Hi all,

There's a bit of growth in it at long last and I'm going to divide up a few fields into paddocks to better manage grass.

Is there any GPS type app that might help? Something maybe that lets you measure or mark corners of the field and then generates a map of the field.

Or am I expecting too much from the technology world here?

Thanks.

There's one called Planimeter.

I've used this to divide up fields. Found it good.

I find "maps measure" great it's on the Android play store.

Securely fence boundaries and roadways. Put in enough water troughs and buy a few reels and plenty of pigtails. Allocate grass in two day blocks depending on covers and group sizes. A lot of internal divisions coming out on farms in this area, too inflexible.
