Using the Split tool will let you split a field boundary into smaller manageable pieces. This can be useful if a field is being planted to multiple crops this year and you'd like to accurately capture where those crops are planted. The Split tool will split the field programmatically to create two halves with as close to 50% of the original field size as possible. Note that a Split function cannot be undone within a growing season, but this will not result in a change to your field in future growing seasons as this does not impact your master boundary.

The split feature is still in BETA, therefore you have to use this link to access it.

• Log in to FarmQA account using this link. If you do not use the link provided you WILL NOT see the Split tool.
• In the Home page, click on the field you want to split. 
• In the slide-out map pane, click on the More... button, then click the Split button (pictured below).

• In the Split the field window that appears on the screen, click the Split button to confirm that you want to split the field.
• The field will automatically be split to generate two equal sized halves.
• After you split the field, you can use the edit function to drag points around to the correct field shape. Follow these instructions to learn about how to edit your fields in FarmQA.
  
  • NOTE: If you do not like the split location, you can un-assign the crop from the field and reassign it to the white master boundary to get the initial shape back. If doing this, remember to delete the half of the field you do no plan to keep. This will be the half WITHOUT data in it from the previous year.
• You can easily confirm which boundary to delete as its name will be Field Name-New (pictured below).

• Fields can also be split multiple times within a growing season if you'd like to split the same field into multiple zones for scouting purposes. Split a field any number of times that you'd like to and use the Field Edit tool to adjust the field to your desired shape.
