Abstract
A system and method for electronic input of data in the field comprises a reader for reading a tag associated with an agricultural input. A reading time is associated with the reading of the tag. A tag identifier of the tag and the reading time is communicated to trigger the collection of agricultural input data during performance of an agricultural input. An input identifier is assigned for a corresponding agricultural input. Data is collected substantially contemporaneously with performing the agricultural input. The collected data is stored or made available in a standard format for sharing with at least one of an application and a group of users.
