The position and field identification information are transmitted in association with the first processing result.
For example, when the processed field information is included in the first processing result, the agricultural management device 10 transmits the first processing result including the processed field information to the display device 42.

Further, when the processed field information is not included in the first processing result, the agricultural management device 10 uses the processing field as a key for searching the management information corresponding to the first processing result to be transmitted, based on the management information. Information is extracted, and the extracted processed field information is transmitted to the display device 42. As shown in FIG. 7, for example, when the selection result corresponding to the management information "5-18-0015507" is transmitted, the processing field information is selected from the management information associated with "5-18-0015507". Search for management information of the first processing result including. The agricultural management device 10 extracts, for example, the harvest management information "1-18-0047459" that manages the processing result having the processing position information from the management information associated with "5-18-0015507". .. When the harvest result corresponding to the harvest management information "1-18-0047459" includes, for example, the processing field information indicating the position of the harvester 30 at the time of harvesting work, the agricultural management device 10 processes the harvest result. The field information is adopted as the field of the selection result.

The display unit 43 displays the first processing result acquired by the result acquisition unit 56 on the map. That is, the display unit 43 displays the first processing result of the selection machine received by the machine reception unit 59 on the map.
Next, the display of the first processing result on the display unit 43 will be described in detail by taking the selection result as an example. Further, for convenience of explanation, the color sorter 61e received by the machine reception unit 59 may be referred to as a "selective sorter". Further, in FIG. 6, "color selection A" is selected as the selection machine, and the color selection A is described as having been selected in the fields A, B, C, and D.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the result acquisition unit 56 acquires the selection result in the “color selection A”, the selection result is displayed on the map display unit 100 of the result display screen M1 displayed by the display unit 43.

The figure 55 showing the cause, for example, the selection item (stink bug, burnt rice, glass, milky white / white fir) is displayed as the selection result. The determination value may be an absolute weight, may be a ratio of defective weight per field area (degree of defect = defective weight / field area), or may be obtained from other values.

FIG. 8 shows an example of the color-selected field H11 and the selection result. For the grains harvested in the field A, the stink bug is color-selected as a selection item. Since the degree of defect obtained from the defective weight of the grain in the field A is equal to or less than the determination value, the figure 55 is not displayed in the color-selected field H11 corresponding to the field A. On the other hand, in the fields B, C, and D, since the degree of defect obtained from the defective weight exceeds the determination value, the figure 55 is displayed in each color-selected field H11. Here, in the color-selected field H11, when the color-selected field H11 having a high degree of defect and the figure 55 is displayed is selected, the supplementary information display unit 101 is displayed by a pop-up, and the selection result is displayed in the supplementary information display unit 101.
