Field Plans Summary Bar Enhancements
The Summary Bar at the top of the Field Plans screen now gives you a more detailed view of your planning progress. For each crop, you can see how many fields and acres have that crop assigned, and how many also have a product placed. No need to scroll through your field list or run a report.
The Summary Bar breaks down the number of fields and acres by crop, in each planning status:
- Crop only: the crop is assigned, but no product is assigned
- Crop and product: the field is fully planned; crop and product assigned
- Nothing assigned: no crop or product is assigned
Use these new details to see how much of each crop is fully planned and which fields still need a product.
Yield Predict Zone Updates for 2027
Two updates for Yield Predict Zones (YPZ) are now available for the 2027 season.
Generate YPZ for a single field
You can now generate Yield Predict decision zones for a field from the single field decision zone modal. Previously, this was only available as a bulk action.
Expanded coverage with the most recent data
Yield Predict Zones now include the most recent crop-year data. This provides more up-to-date zones and expands the coverage area. This updated data is used to create zones for new fields and for existing fields with boundary changes.
Generating zones can take up to 48 hours while Granular Insights gets the new data. It's often faster, depending on the volume of requests being processed.
⚠️ Only fields within the YPZ coverage area can get Yield Predict decision zones. See the coverage map below.

Updates to VRS Smart Defaults
Based on your feedback, we've made Smart Defaults in Variable Rate Seeding (VRS) simpler to navigate. Some options have clearer names and appear in a new order, so you can find the settings you need more quickly this season.
New Crop: Popcorn
You can now assign popcorn as a crop type to a field, so you can plan popcorn separately from corn. We've heard your feedback, and this was a frequently requested addition.
Like other crop types, popcorn can be assigned to a field in Field Plans. It will show across Granular Insights in Field Plans, Field Data and reports.
⚠️ You can't assign a product or seeding rate to popcorn.
