Setting up and working with an AgVise Laboratories integration

FarmQA's AgVise Laboratories integration allows you to automatically bring your soil test from the AgVise web portal to your FarmQA account. Soil samples that you have collected using FarmQA's barcode scanner will be geolocated so you can easily access your spatially distributed soils data. Follow the instructions below to learn how to setup your AgVise integration to get your data into FarmQA.

NOTE: please contact FarmQA Support to enable an AgVise integration for your account. There is no additional cost associated with this integration.
