## Crop Rotation and Management

First, identify all the crop rotations followed on your operation. Then,
list the tract and field number(s) for each rotation. Include situations
with permanent pasture or hayland, pasture or hayland in rotation with
other crops, or rotations that do not include grasses or legumes. Please
see the example below; accurate records are a continual process in
effective livestock management. Records help you track production and
effectively manage each field in your operation.

listing the first tillage operation following harvest of the last crop
in your rotation.
