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; fieldmargin per-farm pricing inverts badly at the small end: a 30 hectare holding pays the same as a 3,000 hectare estate, so the effective cost per hectare on a smallholding is many times what a large farm pays.
  • They diverge on capability: Agworld covers Crop planning & budgets, fieldmargin covers Offline mobile.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Agworld

  • No prices are published for any of the four tiers
  • Planning, budgeting and margin reporting need Grower Plus; machinery integrations and weather stations need Grower Pro
  • The trial is 7 days, after which the account drops to read-only unless you subscribe
  • Basic covers record keeping and compliance only

fieldmargin

  • Per-farm pricing inverts badly at the small end: a 30 hectare holding pays the same as a 3,000 hectare estate, so the effective cost per hectare on a smallholding is many times what a large farm pays.
  • It is not an agronomy platform, so there is no variable rate prescription engine and no nutrient planning to a standard a UK agronomist will certify, meaning most arable users still pay for Gatekeeper or an agronomist's own system alongside it.
  • There is no direct submission route into Basic Payment Scheme, Sustainable Farming Incentive or equivalent schemes, so the compliance paperwork that costs farms real money still has to be assembled elsewhere.
  • Machine integration is limited compared with Climate FieldView or Operations Center; as-applied data from the sprayer or drill generally is not flowing in automatically, so application records depend on someone typing them.
  • Satellite NDVI is confined to the top tier and is standard public imagery, so cloud cover in a British winter means long gaps and the imagery is not a substitute for the aircraft or drone capture that specialist providers sell.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Agworld: What are the main feature differences between Agworld's grower tiers?

Grower Basic focuses on digital record keeping and agronomist connections. Grower Plus (marked as most popular) adds planning, budgeting, gross margin reporting, and satellite imagery. Grower Pro includes machinery integrations, weather station connections, and custom reporting for data-driven operations.

Source
fieldmargin: Does it charge per hectare?

No. Subscriptions are per farm with unlimited hectares and unlimited team members, which is why it is cheap on large acreages and proportionally expensive on small ones.

Agworld: How can I try Agworld before committing to a subscription?

Agworld offers a 7-day free trial with full Pro feature access and no credit card required. After the trial ends, users retain read-only access to their data without subscribing.

Source
fieldmargin: Can I submit my BPS or SFI claim from it?

No. It holds the records that support a claim but there is no direct submission integration, so the claim itself is prepared elsewhere.

Agworld: Is there an Enterprise plan available for larger farming operations?

Yes, an Enterprise plan is available for large-scale operations. Interested customers should contact Agworld directly through their website's contact form to discuss custom Enterprise pricing and features.

Source
fieldmargin: Does it work without mobile signal?

Yes. The mobile apps capture records offline and sync when the phone regains a connection, which is the main reason it gets used in the far corners of a farm.

fieldmargin: Is there a free plan?

There is a 14 day trial rather than a permanently free tier. After that every farm is on a paid plan.
