Expected Behaviour

I would like to add approximately ~25,000 kg/ha of manure to my crop fields.

Actual Behaviour

For some of my fields, I think I can add 6.3 kg/ha, and for others I cannot add any at all.

Describe the Issue & Steps to Reproduce

This model is for the climate smart soils course for Dr. Claudia Wagner-Riddle, so it is a mixed model with a cattle system and cropping system.

Hello @lapblett ,

On the manure application tab for a field, you can enable the viewing of more information by clicking the "Show Additional Information" button. Then you can see a gauge/dial showing how much manure is available for application. This amount shown is the amount created by animals on the farm. Additionally, Holos will only show amounts available for land application for the year in which the manure application is being made. E.g. if animals produce 100 kg of manure in 2022, but only 50 kg of manure in 2023, then the amounts available for land application will be different depending on which year you are applying manure to the field.

Let me know if this solves the issue for you.
