Agrisompo

Navigate to [https://agrisompo-mapping.agrinet.agrisompo.com/](https://agrisompo-mapping.agrinet.agrisompo.com/)

Click "Tools"

Click "Import / Export"

Click "CART Import" Note: If the CART import option is grayed out, that means there is no CART data available for the policy opened.

At the top of each column, you will notice arrows that will allow you to sort that column.

Units must be established in AgriNet before using CART. A unit must be selected in the CART window before the data can be imported.

There are a few ways to select fields to link before importing. 1. Hover over a field on the map with a bright green outline, and the field will highlight in blue on the import window. 2. Hover over the field on the window and the corresponding field will highlight in blue on the map. 3. Start at the top and move down the list of fields, linking each field to a unit, and import the plantings all at once.

At the end of each row, the drop-down menu displays all the available lines. If only one line matches the criteria, it will auto populate, but if multiple lines match, the matching options will move to the top of the list and appear in bold.

The user has the ability to filter the available units by PLSS, FSN, or both. Note: All future lines can be automatically filtered by setting a default to that choice.

Click on the desired line.

After all units have been selected and the box next to the event(s) to be imported is checked, click "Import" to plant the fields.
