Oregongrows90%ofthenation'sgrassseed.Trackeveryhourofit.
1,200+ farm families, 400,000 acres, and $1 billion in economic activity. Willamette Valley seed operations need precise labor tracking through spray season, harvest, and cleaning.
Built for this operation, not a generic office.
A route-specific field record keeps the work, payroll math, and readiness trail in one place.
Oregon grows 90% of the nation's grass seed. Track every hour of it.
Oregon is the world's #1 producer of cool-season grass seed. ~400,000 acres, 90% in the Willamette Valley. 1,200-1,400 farm families, ~10,000 employees.
Offline records that keep working.
Seasonal spray crews requiring precise hour tracking for safety records
Workers see the record before payday.
Harvest combines running 16+ hour days during July cutting
The export is ready before the week gets away.
With ~10,000 employees in the sector and Oregon's overtime law in effect, seed farms leaving AEOTC credits unclaimed are leaving real money on the table.
Eleven farm types, one operating system.
We built the four capabilities above for Oregon's most labor-intensive crop types. The same engine runs everything else.
Tillamook to Linn County.
Parlor shifts. Milking rotations. Salaried-hourly hybrids. Grade A retention compliance.
Linn County grass seed.
Swather, combine, and cleaning crews. A three-week weather window means twelve-hour days. Hourly plus seasonal overtime, every break on record.
Clackamas County Christmas trees.
Shearing crews through summer. Cut and bale in November. Seasonal H-2A and local labor, both on the same record.
Washington County nurseries.
Greenhouse staff on salaried-hourly hybrids. Field crews on piece-rate transplanting. Same payroll run, same export, same record.
What is your office time worth each year?
Enter your current payroll prep time. The estimate is built from the assumptions shown here.
Formula shown: 6 x 26 x $50
Hours per pay period x pay periods per year x office-time value. Actual results depend on your current workflow and payroll setup.
That's 156 office hours per year based on the assumptions shown here.
FarmTC helps keep time and payroll records organized for Oregon BOLI review; it does not replace legal or tax advice.

Every Oregon code. Handled.
Most ag SaaS lists 'compliance' as a feature. Here are the actual Oregon statutes — by code — that FarmTC was built around. If you don't know them by code, you don't understand the operation.
Oregon ag overtime, phased.
48-hour threshold today, dropping to 40 by 2027. Auto-calculated, with seasonal exemption windows applied per crop and county.
AEOTC · the overtime tax credit Oregon owes you.
Oregon refunds a share of every overtime dollar you pay agricultural workers. Dairy farms under 25 FTE: 100% — and that rate doesn't phase out. Other Oregon farms: 30%–80% depending on size and tax year. The condition: track hours, breaks, and overtime in the format the state's application expects, week by week. In 2024, only $5.1M of the $55M annual cap was claimed — most farms left their share on the table because the records were too hard to assemble after the fact. FarmTC tracks the right things in the right format from the first clock-in. Application window opens January 1 each year. Not tax advice — confirm eligibility with your CPA.
