Simple farm records that work offline — no ads, no tracking, just your data.

Farmers can record fields, crops, inputs, activities, and harvests directly on their phones. Designed for smallholders, simple to use, and reliable even in low-connectivity areas.

What it is

A tool for smallholder farmers to keep clear records: fields, crops, tasks, inputs, harvests — plus a special GPS tool to measure the area of your fields.

Key features

Fields

Add your fields one by one with name, area and notes. Update later anytime.

Crops

Each field can have more than one crop per field over several years, showing your farming history for the field. One crop is marked as “active” in this season.

Tasks

Record farm work like land preparation, planting, weeding, spraying or harvesting — with date, hours worked and cost. Show hired help, own labour or machine hours in the comment field.

Inputs

Enter seeds, fertilizer and pesticides with quantities and prices. The app can show kg/ha hints to help calculate the right amount of seed/fertilizer.

Harvests

Save amounts (any unit: kg, bags, cobs) and value. See yield and value per hectare over the season.

Measure the area of your fields

Walk around the field to map it. The app draws your path and calculates area and perimeter as you walk.

Why Farmers’ Logbook is Different - how we made this app

We build farm tools that work on the cheapest phone in the village.

Simple by design

Everything is written in plain, clear code so it’s easy to understand and fix.

Small app size

The app is lightweight, quick to install and update, and friendly to simple smartphones.

Offline first

Your data stays on your device. The app works without internet.

Built step by step

Every feature is tested in real conditions, not just in a lab. Reliability beats fancy.

“Make it simple. Make it clear. Make it run anywhere.”

Farmers’ Logbook is made simple, clear, and easy to understand. That keeps it reliable on low-cost phones, easy to maintain, and focused on what matters: helping farmers log and learn from their fields.
