CenterPoint Accounting for Agriculture: Accounting: general ledger with profitability by field, crop or herd, grain-bushel/head-count/feed inventory, Schedule F mapping, farm ratios (working capital, debt-to-asset, operating expense), depreciation and land-rent tracking; cloud-hosted or local install. Labor: integrated ag payroll (Form 943, piece-work crew pay, bilingual stubs) plus Employee Portal/Online Time Clock; not a workforce-scheduling tool. Equipment: vendor integration page lists John Deere Operations Center (pulls field boundaries into Production Analysis maps) as the only equipment-brand integration. Elevator/buyer: GrainTrac integration posts settlement checks and grain-sale invoices into CenterPoint; Plaid bank feeds. Vendor terms mention 'AI Features' but no AI assistant is described on product pages. No mobile app described on vendor pages fetched.
Sentera FieldAgent: FieldAgent processes drone, satellite and ground imagery for stand count, canopy cover, tassel count, NDVI/NDRE/VARI crop health, elevation, zone analytics and weed pressure; includes drone flight planning and ground scouting. Integrations named: John Deere Operations Center and Climate FieldView ('keeping data in sync'); Enterprise tier adds ERP/GIS/R&D API integrations. SMARTSCRIPT Weeds generates drone-based weed prescriptions (sold to farmers and to retail/consultants). Analytics lean toward hybrid seed production and research plots as well as grower scouting.
