[Market-farming] planting calendar wish

Greetings to all,

I'd like to have a calendar (software) that would allow me to enter  
varietal names and a small amount of additional info. (like whether  
hybrid, organic, etc.) with planting dates and expected days to  
maturity.  My vision is then that the calendar would automatically  
generate expected harvest dates (perhaps with choice of graphic  
display) and so be a good tool for: 1. estimating market readiness, 2.  
projecting holes in cash flow and therefore when we need to plant  
various additional crops to fill in gaps and 3. figuring how far off  
our maturity times are from stated times to allow better planning in  
future.

Does anybody have or know of anything like this?  If so, is it  
actually worth the data entry time?  (I am aware of the adage "Be  
careful what you wish for...")

Thanks!

Best wishes,

Karen
