A peak into our new whitepaper on how agribusinesses and grain buyers manage cash grain workflows
We just announced the release of our new whitepaper which was constructed based on the results of an extensive survey of leading agribusinesses and grain buyers about how they manage their workflows surrounding physical grain. Why would this be helpful you may ask? The agricultural industry is constantly evolving with new technologies and we want you to be equipped with the tools you need to stay at the forefront of it all.
In the whitepaper, you can learn how to simplify your everyday tasks to make smarter, faster decisions. For example, are you tracking your grain bid data in the most efficient way possible? Per the survey, 65% of agribusinesses use competitor websites to track their grain bids and only 30% have the upper hand of using software and data feeds. With software and data feeds – these agribusiness can build processes that allow the business to scale in both the present and future.
