Import Your Field Data from John Deere Operations Center™ into ForGround by Bayer

Use your existing field data to get started in the Bayer Carbon Program

Managing your farm means juggling a lot of moving parts—equipment, inputs, weather, and data. Bringing your field information into the Bayer Carbon Program is an important step in the enrollment process.

By signing in to ForGround by Bayer and importing your field boundary data from your John Deere Operations Center™ account, you can complete this step using the data you already have.

Put the data you already have to work for enrollment

If you’re already using John Deere Operations Center™, your field boundary data may already be mapped and organized. Instead of starting from scratch, you can use that existing data to help support enrollment in the Bayer Carbon Program.

It’s a simple way to build on the tools you already rely on—without changing how you manage your operation.

Why This Matters

The Bayer Carbon Program is designed to reward farmers for practices like:
✓ Cover crops
✓ No-till
✓ Strip-till

To enroll, field boundary data is required. Importing your field boundary data from your existing digital tools can help streamline this step.

If you’re already implementing these practices or considering them, bringing your field data into ForGround is an important step toward understanding your eligibility and potential payments.

Importing your field boundary data helps:
• Complete a required step in enrollment
• Align your field data with program requirements

How It works

Getting started is straightforward:
→ Visit MyForGround.com and sign in or create an account
→ Click Sign in with John Deere Operations Center™
→ Select the fields and field boundary data you want to import
→ Start your enrollment in the Bayer Carbon Program

Once your field boundary data is imported, you’ll be guided through the next steps to complete enrollment and review eligibility.

Built to work alongside your existing tools

This connection is designed to fit into your current workflow—not replace it. ForGround by Bayer provides a central place to manage enrollment and participation in the Bayer Carbon Program. You stay in control of your data, and permissions remain governed by ForGround by Bayer and Bayer Carbon Program terms.

What to Expect

Importing your field boundary data helps streamline the enrollment process—but it’s important to note:
• Eligibility is determined based on program requirements
• Importing field boundary data does not guarantee enrollment or payment
• Additional information may be required during enrollment
