The short version

  • Only Agworld has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Agworld no prices are published for any of the four tiers; Farmers Edge farmers Edge priced its FarmCommand platform per acre rather than per seat, with tiers from $1.50 CAD per acre for basic imagery-only monitoring up to $6.00 CAD per acre for variable rate fertility prescriptions, meaning cost scales directly with farm size rather than user count (archived pricing page, 5 April 2020)
  • They diverge on capability: Agworld covers Field mapping, Farmers Edge covers Satellite imagery.
