Custom Rice Fertilizing Tools

This is a set of tools for assisting a custom rice fertilizing operator. It requires the use of an auto steer system (John Deere, etc) and some sort of rate controller or some way to measure units of liquid flowed.

Angle Calculator:

This is used to find a heading (in degrees) to adjust an A-B line when the following is know: ( length of A-B line, current heading, amount of offset, direction of offset )

Corner Calculator:

This is used to find how much liquid will be required to finish out a straight corner. (No curves on either edge but any angle of corner.) You must be started into the corner already and not still out on the straight passes. Three inputs are needed. Gallons at beginning of pass #1. Gallons at end of pass #1. Gallons at end of pass #2. Returned information will be ( Gallons needed to finish corner, gallons left in tank, passes left to finish corner. )

Rate Calculator:

Calculates your average rate of Pounds/Gallons per acre. Four inputs are needed. Starting Amount. Starting Acres. Current (or ending) Amount. Current (or ending) Acres. Returned information will be your average rate per acre. Note: The starting amount and acres can be saved by the app. The Starting Acres defaults to the last Current/Ending Acres inputed for continuity through the job. To start a new job just enter the Starting Acres and hit the Save Starting Acres button. The Starting Amount defaults to whatever has been saved. The New Load button basically just moves the Current/Ending Acres to the Starting Acres and clears the rest of the form. The Clear Form button will clear all the inputs if you are needing to start from scratch. (Note: This does not save the Starting Amount. You must hit the Save Starting Amount if you want to change the default amount.)

This app will be mostly useless for the general public and only updated as its user's see the need. If someone has a need that it could be adjusted for feel free to use it.
