Tools for Record Keeping

The Critical Records of Animal Production (C.R.A.P.) App, designed by Utah State University, is designed to help producers track manure application and incorporation events, lagoon inspections, and other information needed to maintain a Nutrient Management Plan (NMP).   The app is designed to replace a notepad for record keeping while "in the field".  Records entered on the app can be emailed as a .csv file attachment (Excel format).  

The C.R.A.P. app is free and can be found in iTunes or Google Play store by searching for "Critical Records".  Or one can use the links below:
