Sodbook

For sod and turfgrass farms

Sod farm software that knows which field is ready

Sodbook is sod farm software for small and mid-size turf farms that keeps every field's seeding and cut history, works out when each field will be ready to cut again, and ties every pallet order and pickup to the field it came from.

Pallet orders by field

From the phone call to the last pallet out of the yard

Take the order with pallets, variety and pickup date, assign it to a field, and log each pickup as it leaves. Split pickups and returned empties are part of the record, and the office always knows how many pallets are still owed.

  1. Mon 7:40

    Order taken

    Rivera Landscaping, 20 pallets of Tifway 419, pickup Wednesday. The office assigns it to Field 3.

  2. Wed 6:15

    Cut

    The field lead logs 20 pallets cut from Field 3 on his phone. The order shows Cut; Field 3 moves to Cut, regrowing with a new ready date.

  3. Wed 9:05

    Pickup 1

    Their first truck takes 12 pallets and drops off 8 empties. The order shows Partly picked up, 8 owed.

  4. Fri 7:30

    Pickup 2

    The second trip takes the last 8. The order closes itself as Picked up.

Add each field with its acres, variety and how many days it takes to regrow. Log a cut and the field moves to cut and regrowing with a new expected ready date. Cut only part of it and it shows as partly cut. A new seeding or sprigging starts it over as growing.

The dashboard lists which fields are ready, this week's pickups and how many pallets are still owed, so you sell from the right field.

Peak season, on paper

Four questions a notebook can't answer by Friday

Which field was cut when?
The crew cuts a strip that hasn't regrown enough, or leaves ready sod standing two weeks too long, because the cut dates are on a wall map or in someone's head.
Where do we sell from next?
Seeding and sprigging dates and the variety in each field live in a notebook, so planning the next harvest is a guess.
Which ticket goes with which field?
Phone orders end up on paper tickets. The crew can't tell which orders come out of which field or how many pallets are still owed.
Who picked up what?
A landscaper takes 12 of 20 pallets Tuesday and the rest Friday. Without a pickup log, nobody can say who took what, when, or from where.

Moving the farm off paper tickets

What is sod farm software?

Software that keeps a turf farm's records in one place instead of a wall map, a notebook and a stack of tickets: what's planted in each field, when each field was cut, when it will be ready again, which orders are booked against it and who picked up what. Sodbook is built for farms with a few hundred acres, a field lead and an office person or two, not for large operations with a fleet of delivery trucks.

How do turf farms work out when a field is ready to cut again?

After a field is harvested, a strip of soil or some of the sod is left behind and the grass grows back in from it, which takes from a few months to over a year depending on the variety, climate and how much was left. Each field in Sodbook has its own regrowth days; logging a cut sets the expected ready date from it, and you can type a different date when the field tells you otherwise.

How do I keep sod inventory?

For a sod farm, inventory is standing sod: which fields are ready, partly cut or regrowing, and how many pallets are already promised against each one. The Sodbook dashboard lists the fields ready to cut, the week's pickups and the pallets still owed on open orders, and the fields page shows each field's status and expected ready date.

Can it handle split pickups and returned pallets?

Yes. Log each pickup on its own with the pallets taken, the driver's name, the truck or trailer and the empty pallets they brought back. The order adds the pickups up and moves to partly picked up, then picked up, so the office can see what is still owed.

Can my landscaper customers check their orders?

On the Farm + Customers plan, invite a customer and link their login to their customer record. They see only their own orders, the pallets picked up so far and your pickup hours, and they can request a new order for the office to confirm. Everyone else still calls, and the office still answers.

Is this for sod installers or landscapers who lay sod?

No. Sodbook is for the farm that grows and harvests the sod. Installer tools quote and schedule jobs at a customer's yard; Sodbook tracks fields, cuts, orders and pickups at the farm.

Put this season's fields and orders in one place

Add your fields with their regrowth days, log the last cut on each, and enter the orders on the board this week. A typical farm is set up in about an hour.
