Bushel Farm

  • Prices are not shown on the current pages; the tier names appear but the figures sit behind an old pricing path
  • Much of the value comes from integrations with John Deere Operations Center, Climate FieldView and the Bushel grain network, so the benefit depends on already using those
  • There is no free tier, only a 30 day trial
