Add a Headland

Headland areas are defined as the area at each end of the field where farm equipment turns during field operations such as planting, sidedressing, harvest, and other physical features separate a field from adjacent fields or other land uses. Sometimes, this area is known as the Turnrow.

Information!
We recommend setting points at the corners of the field to create a correct parallel line to the field boundary.
