# Skill: Time the operations
A perfectly-rated application at the wrong time is wasted.
## Step 1 — Map the agronomic windows
Planting, application, and harvest windows for the crop (§3 #3).
## Step 2 — Weigh the weather risk
Fit operations to the forecast and field readiness.
## Step 3 — Sequence the work
Order operations across fields to hit the windows.
## Step 4 — Track the cost of slippage
Quantify yield/quality loss from missing a window.
## Output
An operation-timing plan against agronomic windows with the slippage cost.
