Workforce Management Software for Farms and Agriculture
Schedule seasonal crews, track time by field or location, manage tasks, use GPS visibility, handle PTO, and prepare payroll-ready records for agricultural teams.
Farm work is seasonal, mobile, and field-based — tools need to keep up
Farms and agricultural businesses manage seasonal workers, changing weather, field-based work, crews moving between locations, task-based work, harvest periods, equipment, and payroll records. Managers need to know who is scheduled, where employees are working, what task they are doing, and how hours connect to fields, crops, projects, or teams.
Paper crew lists, radio updates, and end-of-day timesheets can't keep up with seasonal labor and changing field plans. Hours get assigned to the wrong field. Quantities go uncounted. Payroll cycles drag.
Grownu brings farm workforce management and agricultural workforce management into one platform — connecting scheduling, GPS clock-ins, tasks, quantities, PTO, and payroll-ready records for crews and fields.
-
Seasonal labor surges
Headcount triples for harvest, then drops back.
-
Crews moving between fields
Hours must follow the field, crop, or block.
-
Task and quantity tracking
Crates, rows, bins — quantity matters as much as time.
-
Payroll across crews and fields
Records must roll up cleanly for the cycle.

One connected agricultural operation
From field assignment to payroll cycle, every hour and every quantity lines up with the field, crew, and season it belongs to.
Schedule seasonal and recurring farm crews
Plan field crews around the season — and rebuild fast when weather, crops, or harvest windows change.
Agricultural GPS time tracking and field-level visibility
GPS time tracking and per-field geofences confirm that hours belong to the right field. Live view shows which fields are being worked and which crews are active.
- GPS clock-in and clock-out
- Geofence per field or block
- Live view of active fields
- Outdoor and rugged terminals
- Records tied to the right field and crop
- Mobile-first crew experience
Farm task and quantity records for field work
Agricultural work is measured in quantities as much as hours. Capture rows, crates, bins, or other field-work units on mobile — tied to the right field and crew.
Photos and notes from the field
Document field conditions, crop quality, equipment issues, and customer-specific instructions directly from the field — tied to the right shift, field, and crop.
- Time-stamped field photos
- Condition and crop notes
- Equipment issue reports
- Exportable field records
- Searchable per field and season
- Per-crew accountability
PTO, absences, and crew availability
Seasonal crews still need PTO and availability tracked. Approve requests in one queue, with visibility while planning the field assignments.
Mobile GPS in the field, terminals at packing sheds
Field crews clock in from mobile with GPS. Packing sheds, warehouses, and fixed facilities can use outdoor or wall-mount terminals — all records on the same timesheet.
- Mobile clock-in with GPS
- Outdoor terminals for packing sheds
- Wall-mount terminals for warehouses
- RFID and badge options
- All records on one timesheet
- Mix and match per crew or site
Reports by employee, field, crew, or project

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about using Grownu for farm workforce management, seasonal crew scheduling, agricultural GPS time tracking, field task records, PTO, terminals, and payroll-ready reports.
Can Grownu schedule seasonal farm crews by field, crop, or harvest period?
Yes. Grownu helps farms and agricultural businesses schedule seasonal crews by field, crop, block, location, shift, or harvest period. Managers can reuse schedule templates and adjust crew assignments when weather, labor availability, crop conditions, or field plans change.
Can farm workers clock in and out from the field with GPS?
Yes. Farm workers can clock in and out from a mobile device, and Grownu can record GPS location with the time entry. This helps managers connect worked hours to the correct field, crop area, block, project, crew, or work location.
Can Grownu use geofencing for fields, blocks, packing sheds, or farm locations?
Yes. Farms can use geofence-based workflows to confirm whether workers are clocking in from the correct field, block, packing shed, warehouse, production area, or approved work location.
Can managers see which crews are active in the field?
Yes. Managers can get visibility into active crews, field attendance, clock-ins, clock-outs, late arrivals, missed clock-outs, and work records connected to the right field, crop, crew, or location.
Can crews record task quantities like crates, rows, bins, or totes?
Yes. Grownu can help teams record farm task quantities such as crates picked, rows completed, bins filled, totes handled, or other field-work units depending on the company workflow. These records can be connected to the field, crop, crew, employee, shift, or season.
Can workers add photos and notes from the field?
Yes. Workers can add photos, notes, condition updates, equipment issue reports, or field documentation from mobile. These records can stay connected to the right task, shift, field, crop, crew, or season.
Can hours be reported by employee, field, crop, crew, or project?
Yes. Managers can review hours and work records by employee, field, crop, crew, project, location, date, or season. This helps operations and payroll teams understand where labor time was spent.
Can Grownu help manage PTO, absences, and farm worker availability?
Yes. Farm workers can request PTO or leave, and managers can review availability before assigning crews to fields, harvest work, packing sheds, warehouses, or recurring schedules.
Are outdoor terminals supported for packing sheds, warehouses, or fixed farm locations?
Yes. Farms can use mobile GPS clock-ins for field crews and time attendance terminals for fixed locations such as packing sheds, warehouses, production areas, facility entrances, or other farm work sites.
Does Grownu prepare payroll-ready records for farms and agricultural teams?
Yes. Grownu helps prepare payroll-ready timesheets, approved hours, field-level records, crew reports, quantity-based reports, attendance exceptions, and exports that can support your existing payroll process.
Does Grownu replace my payroll system?
No. Grownu does not need to replace your payroll system. It helps prepare cleaner workforce records, timesheets, attendance data, field reports, and payroll-ready exports before payroll is processed.
