Aside from the trait data gathered in the field, EBS can also record post-harvest data through the Post Harvest tool. The tool lets users manage the post-harvest records of each plot.
To learn more about uploading your collected trait data, check out the user guides on Data Collection using EBS and Data Collection using Field Book.
Access Post Harvest tool
From the Data Collection browser, click the Post Harvest button.
If manually inputting the Plot ID is the preferred option,
toggle on the Use Search Button. Type in the Plot ID from a plot record and click Search.
On the other hand, users can also retrieve the Plot ID by scanning the QR code of the field tags. Refer to the video below for a sample demonstration.
The browser displays the (1) experiment information related to the plot, (2) the available printouts, and the (3) the table with the latest measured plots. The data fields differ depending on your user role and crop program in EBS.
