Each product in brief
AgVend grower portal
AgVend, Inc.. 4 of 10 capabilities described, 3 partial. Pricing: not published.
Farmers use a white-labeled portal/app branded by their retailer or cooperative: view and pay invoices and account balances, order inputs, apply for or view financing ('Point-of-Action Financing' with CHS Capital, Agri-Access/Compeer, AgQuest, CFA, TruChoice by Corteva, Growers Edge, John Deere Financial, ProPartners, WinField Secure), and in the grain module check the retailer's commodity bids, submit offers and eSign contracts. Accounting is 'partial' (invoice/statement/payment visibility only). Agronomy is 'partial' (integrations with agronomy planning tools; retailer agronomy team tools). AI: 'Goose' co-pilot (beta, 2024) is for retailer staff, not growers. Elevator integration covers the grower's own retailer/co-op grain desk via integrations with ag ERPs and grain offer systems. Weather not described on fetched pages.
Farmers Business Network
Farmer's Business Network, Inc.. 5 of 10 capabilities described, 1 partial. Pricing: 'Membership is free.' 'Fees may apply for certain product and service offerings other than FBN membership.' (fbn.com, accessed 2026-10-25). Norm pricing not published..
Norm is FBN's AI advisor for agronomy/farm-management questions (FBN calls it a proprietary LLM; site warns 'Norm can make mistakes'). FBN Direct sells crop protection, fertilizer, seed, animal health, feed and supplies direct-to-farm. FBN Crop Marketing lets members 'review local bids, manage contracts, scale tickets, and even receive payments' with grain buyers. FBN Finance offers land loans, operating lines 'of up to $5 million', equipment loans. Agronomy analytics are benchmarking/seed-performance insights from member data rather than a full field-mapping tool.
Indigo Ag
Indigo Ag, Inc.. 1 of 10 capabilities described, 4 partial. Pricing: not published.
Inputs: Indigo sells biotrinsic biological seed treatments (14 US products per vendor; e.g., Nemora FP bionematicide for SCN launching spring 2026) and the CLIPS on-planter application device, distributed through partners such as GROWMARK. Carbon: farmers enroll fields online at app.indigoag.com, enter field boundaries and 4+ years of crop/practice history, and receive 75% of net credit revenue on a five-year payment schedule (up to 20% of credits held in a buffer pool, unpaid); vendor cites up to $80 per credit for new 2025 sales as an estimate, not a guarantee; available across the continental US for 18 crops. Grain marketing: Indigo exited grain buying in March 2022 (The Andersons took over legacy contracts) and repositioned Market+ as merchandising software for grain buyers (bids, contracts, auto-hedge, branded storefront); no farmer-facing marketplace page exists on indigoag.com today. Buyer integrations: Carbon by Indigo works with 40+ agribusinesses and Source by Indigo (sustainable sourcing for food companies) was spun into Terion in June 2026. Mobile: enrollment and account management run through the web app at app.indigoag.com; no dedicated farmer mobile app described.
