Grain Bin Inventory App ?

[Guest]

Could anyone steer me in the right direction to finding an app that would work on iPad, iPhone and MacBook for tracking your inventory in grain bins? I am looking for something not too complicated and would track starting and ending volumes after sales , etc. And would give on farm totals for each commodity. Seems hard to find , tried one called grain storage manager , but doesn't appear to work on the MacBook . Ease of use is fairly important . Thanks

Thought an app that would let you watch and blend to grade spec from each bin would be valuable tool.
I know there is some prod groups that have programs to blend all or certain bins on your farm to get your best deal.

This is also what elevators use to cut you a deal (in your best interests of course) and for their inventory control and blending to spec for their profit.

I just came across this one. I was looking up stuff on Internet site from Iowa and noticed this is a Saskatoon company!

Why would you give all your extremely valuable business information away for free under the guise of a flashy app?

Your farm aggregated data is worth billions in case you didn't know. Don't be a moron and give it away for free.

We do it everytime we give samples and quantity info to elevators to get sales discovery.
You saying elevators should start paying us to look at our grain and give us offers?

Not a bad idea, None refundable down payment to see what we have so they can base purchases/sales based on info. Sorta like a nonrefundable down payment on a tractor or truck just to test drive it.

you don't give them 1/10 of a percent of what this app does.

It'll be interesting where this discussion goes.

Wow.....that app is taking a lot of personal information.

I used Agri Data. It has a grain bin app, and even can order those QR Codes for bins so you can scan the bin and enter in amount you put in and take out if you want. Gives me average of my grains during the year. Just my opinion. Works great for my operation, App just came out in January.

And what is there privacy policy?

Their is a fee for their whole system. You sign an agreement when you sign up with them. Not sure off the top of my head as I have been using it for 4 years now.
