Exporting field boundaries as shapefiles

Enterprise administrators can export the field boundaries out of their FarmQA accounts for uses in other applications or programs. You can download all of the fields in a single branch of your enterprise together, or you can individually select a field or a group of fields to download. Check out the instructions below to learn how to download fields from your FarmQA account. 

NOTE: Exported shapefiles will be downloaded as a zipped folder containing a .shp., .shx, and .dbf file, all of which need to be stored in the same zipped folder together in order to properly store your field boundary(s).
