## Description

This MCP server provides essential tools for agricultural planning. Use `calculate_field_productivity` to determine the actual rate of land coverage based on implement width, speed, and efficiency. Use `evaluate_completion_feasibility` to estimate the likelihood of finishing tasks within a timeframe, accounting for weather reliability. The `compare_machinery_economics` tool helps decide between owning equipment or hiring contractors, while `get_operational_window` identifies expected daily working capacity.

## Tools

### calculate_field_productivity
Calculate the actual rate at which a machine covers land

### compare_machinery_economics
Compare the costs of owning a machine versus hiring a contractor

### evaluate_completion_feasibility
Estimate if a task can be completed within a specific timeframe given weather risks

### get_operational_window
Identify the effective working capacity per day

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the field capacity for a 5m wide implement moving at 8km/h with 85% efficiency?
```

**Response:** 
```
The actual field capacity is 3.4 hectares per hour.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is it feasible to cover 500 hectares in 10 days if I can do 50 hectares per day and weather reliability is 0.7?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total hours required is 10 hours, and the probability of completion is 0.7.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Should I own a machine or hire one for 1000 hectares if ownership costs $5000 fixed plus $20/ha, and hiring is $35/ha?
```

**Response:** 
```
Ownership is the preferred option with a total cost of $25,000 compared to $35,000 for custom hire.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool account for weather?**
The `evaluate_completion_feasibility` tool uses a weather reliability factor to adjust the probability of completing work within the available working days.

**Can I compare ownership costs with hiring?**
Yes, the `compare_machinery_economics` tool compares total ownership costs (fixed and variable) against custom hire rates per hectare.

**What is field efficiency?**
Field efficiency is the decimal representing the percentage of time a machine is actively working versus time lost to turns, refueling, or repositioning. It is used in `calculate_field_productivity` to find the actual hectares per hour.
