Farmers Edge FarmCommand: FarmCommand described (BetaKit, Apr 2024) as a platform that 'collects, visualizes, and analyzes farm data'; Farmers Edge historically bundled on-farm weather stations and telematics with FarmCommand. Current grower-facing feature list could not be fetched (farmersedge.ca now redirects to corvian.com; farmersedge.com blocked). Corvian site lists enterprise offerings only: Managed Services, Sustainability & Compliance (45Z, Scope 3), AI Agents, Insurance & Lending tools, soil testing via Farmers Edge Laboratories.
Indigo Ag: 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.

| Status | Taken private by Fairfax Financial in March 2024 and delisted from TSX. On Dec 10, 2025 Farmers Edge announced Corvian, a new enterprise technology brand; the release says 'Farmers Edge will maintain its grower-facing operations' and Farmers Edge Laboratories continues as a soil-testing brand. farmersedge.ca now redirects to corvian.com, and FarmCommand is not mentioned on the Corvian site; the current status and pricing of the US grower offering is unverified. | Company active, but the farmer-facing grain marketplace is effectively gone: Indigo stopped buying grain in March 2022, no Market+ or Marketplace product page appears on indigoag.com (the /marketplace and /marketplus URLs resolve to the Sustainability Solutions page), and the most recent vendor news item about Market+ is from 2021. A third-party directory listing for 'Market+ Merchandise' (grain-buyer merchandising software) remained live as of March 2026, so Market+ may persist as buyer-side software; Indigo has not published a formal discontinuation notice (unverified). The Source sustainable-sourcing business left Indigo for Terion in June 2026. Today Indigo sells farmers carbon-program enrollment and biological inputs. |
