## What can I do today?

- ✅ **Photograph your plot** — point the camera at a garden bed to capture its slope and orientation. The app turns that scan into a planting record.
- ✅ **Create sectors from a scan** — after scanning, tap "Create sector from this scan" to save the bed with its measured data attached.
- ✅ **Log a harvest** — open a sector, tap "Log harvest", enter the weight. The app keeps a running history per bed and per crop.
- ✅ **See year-over-year yield** — the Yield tab shows a two-column comparison of this year vs last year, with a CSV export you can share.
- ✅ **Get a rotation recommendation** — the Rotation tab tells you which crop family to plant next in each bed and why, citing agronomic sources.
- ✅ **Check your irrigation target** — the Nutrient tab calculates a weekly watering target in millimetres using a scientific formula (FAO-56) that estimates how much water your plants need.
- ✅ **Hear verdicts spoken aloud** — eve
