Spray application record template
This blank CSV spray log has one row per application: date, start and end time, field, crop and stage, product and label registration number, rate, water volume, area, wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, where the conditions came from, operator and notes. It is a record-keeping aid, not an official form.
agriintel-spray-application-record.csv · CSV (UTF-8) · 23 columns, header row only · no formulas or macros · no email or account needed. Opens in Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice or Numbers.

These are the same column headings, in the same order, as the CSV file. Print this table to fill in by hand.

What goes in each column
The last column says whether the AgriIntel app has a matching input today. Template-only columns are there because they are useful on paper, not because the app records them.
| Column | What to write | In the AgriIntel app |
|---|---|---|
| Date (YYYY-MM-DD) | The day the work was done, written year-month-day so it sorts correctly. | In the app: Date |
| Start time | When spraying started, in 24-hour time. | Template only: The app records the date, not the time of day |
| End time | When spraying finished. | Template only: Not recorded in the app |
| Farm | The farm or yard site the field belongs to. | In the app: Every field belongs to one of your farms |
| Field | The field name or legal land description you use day to day. | In the app: Field name |
| Crop | The crop on the field this season. | In the app: Crop, saved on the field |
| Crop stage | The crop stage at application, as the label describes it. | Template only: No crop stage field; add it to Notes |
| Product name | The trade name as printed on the label. | In the app: Product |
| Label registration no. | The registration number printed on the product label, so you can find the exact label again. | Template only: No separate field; add it to Product or Notes |
| Rate | The rate applied, as a number only. Put the unit in the next column. | In the app: Rate (seeding, spray and fertilizer records) |
| Rate unit | The unit of the rate, for example L/ac, kg/ac, lb/ac, bu/ac or seeds/ac. | In the app: Unit: L/ac, mL/ac, gal/ac, oz/ac, kg/ac, g/ac, lb/ac, bu/ac or seeds/ac |
| Water volume | Carrier volume with its unit, for example 10 gal/ac. | Template only: Not recorded in the app |
| Area sprayed (ac) | Acres actually sprayed. | In the app: Acres covered |
| Wind speed (km/h) | Wind speed at the time of spraying. | In the app: Wind (km/h) |
| Wind direction (from) | The direction the wind is blowing from, for example NW. | Template only: The app has no wind direction field |
| Temperature (°C) | Air temperature at the time of spraying. | In the app: Temp (°C) |
| Relative humidity (%) | Relative humidity at the time of spraying. | In the app: Humidity (%) |
| Conditions source (measured or forecast) | Whether the wind, temperature and humidity were measured in the field or copied from a forecast. | Partly in the app: Noted automatically only when you use Fill from current weather; typed values carry no source label |
| Sprayer and nozzles | Equipment, nozzle type and boom height. | Template only: Not recorded in the app |
| Operator | Who did the work. | Template only: No operator field; add a name to Notes if you need it |
| Applicator certificate no. (if any) | The operator's applicator certificate or licence number, where one applies. | Template only: Not recorded in the app |
| Downwind sensitive areas | Crops, homes, water or shelterbelts downwind of the field. | Template only: No separate field; add it to Notes |
| Notes | Anything else worth knowing next season. | In the app: Notes (up to 2,000 characters) |
Measured versus forecast conditions
Write down the conditions you measured at the field, at boom height where you can, and say so in the Conditions source column. A forecast is useful for planning the day, but it is not a measurement of what happened at the boom. If you copy numbers from a forecast or a weather app, record them as forecast.
AgriIntel's spray-window strip is a forecast for the farm's coordinates over the next 24 hours. It helps you plan, and the spray window weather guide explains how wind, inversions, temperature and rain affect a spray day. Neither replaces an in-field reading or the product label.
Wind direction and time
Wind speed alone does not show where drift could have gone. Note the direction the wind is blowing from and the start and end time of the job, and add a second row if conditions change part way through. The AgriIntel app stores wind speed but not wind direction or time of day, which is why those columns are marked template-only below.
Label reference
Pesticides registered by Health Canada carry a registration number on the label, written for example as "Reg. No. 00000 P.C.P. Act". Recording it lets you find the exact label later. The label sets the rates, wind and temperature limits, rain-free period and buffer zones for that product; this template does not check any of them.
Is this an official spray record?
No. Record-keeping requirements differ by province, by applicator licence and sometimes by product label, and no single generic template covers all of them. Check with your provincial agriculture or environment ministry, and with any buyer or program you sell under, for the records they expect, then add or rename columns to suit.
How this differs from the AgriIntel app
An AgriIntel spray record stores the date, field, product, rate and unit, acres covered, wind speed (km/h), temperature (°C), humidity (%) and notes. For a record dated today you can fill wind, temperature and humidity from the current weather observation at the farm's location (not the field), and missing wind is left blank rather than read as calm. The app does not record time of day, wind direction, crop stage, water volume, label numbers, operators or re-entry and pre-harvest intervals, and it does not produce regulatory reports.
AgriIntel does not import this file, and neither the template nor the app is an official or regulatory record. Weather and alerts in the app apply to the farm's location, not to individual fields.
