Granular (Insights): Capabilities recorded for Granular Insights (Corteva) as currently described: field-by-field seed/crop-protection plans, variable-rate seeding prescriptions, satellite imagery, field notes/photos, yield estimates and yield analysis map layers, end-of-season reports; weather, soil topography and irrigation data feed the seeding decisions. Data uploads from John Deere Operations Center, Case IH AFS Connect, Ag Leader AgFiniti and Precision Planting Panorama. Designed for use with 'your trusted Corteva team'. Accounting, grain marketing, scale-ticket and work-order functions that were in Granular Business now live in Traction Ag's Advanced Farm Management suite. No mobile app named on the current Corteva page (geo-location navigation implies mobile use; unverified).
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.

| Founded | 2014 | 2013 |
| Status | Largely discontinued/divested as a farm-management product. Granular Business (the whole-farm/financial product) is no longer sold by Corteva; it was acquired by Traction Ag in Nov 2022 and is now marketed as part of Traction's 'Advanced Farm Management'. Granular Agronomy (incl. Nitrogen Monitoring in Insights) shut down Aug 31, 2022. AcreValue was sold to Ag-Analytics in Sept 2021 (acrevalue.com returned HTTP 403 to our fetch). Granular Insights continues as a Corteva agronomic tool for Pioneer/Corteva customers: granular.ag now redirects to the Granular Insights login (us.app.granular.ag) and Corteva's product page was last modified June 22, 2026. Corteva stated in 2022: 'Moving forward our ambition is not to sell our customers software.' | 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. |
