Commodity Brokers
The Software Tool That Wins You New Grain Clients
Grain Basis gives Commodity -licensed brokers a data-driven edge that differentiates you from every other broker pitching the same markets — and keeps your clients from going anywhere else.
The Market Is Getting Crowded. Your Edge Has to Be Real.
Farmers have more choices than ever. Online platforms, discount brokers, and AI-generated trade alerts are all competing for the same clients you’re trying to win and keep. Offering better prices isn’t a sustainable advantage — the market is the market.
What is sustainable is being the broker who shows up with better tools, better data, and a plan built around each farmer’s specific operation. That’s what Grain Basis lets you do.
What Grain Basis Does for Your Clients — and Your Practice
- A better service experience for every farmer you work with.
When you bring a break-even analysis built around a client’s specific acres, inputs, and cost of production into every conversation, you’re giving them something most brokers can’t — a plan that’s actually about their farm. That’s a higher standard of service, and farmers notice the difference. - Full transparency into their marketing position.
Clients who can see every priced bushel, every open position, and every hedge in one place are more informed and more confident in their decisions. Grain Basis gives your clients that visibility — which leads to better conversations, more deliberate marketing decisions, and a relationship built on clarity rather than guesswork. - Documentation that protects your clients and your practice.
As a licensed broker, a written record of every marketing plan and recommendation you deliver isn’t just good practice — it’s what professional service looks like. Grain Basis keeps that record organized by account and accessible any time, for you and for your clients. - The capacity to serve more clients without cutting corners.
The analysis and reporting work that used to take hours gets done in minutes. That means the clients you already have continue to receive the same quality of attention as your practice grows.
What Farmers Want From Their Broker
| What Farmers Want | How Grain Basis Delivers It |
|---|---|
| A clear picture of my break-even | Calculated from their actual cost inputs — not industry averages |
| A written marketing plan I can follow | Generated in minutes, built around their specific operation |
| Someone who tracks my position for me | Dashboard shows every priced vs. open bushel in real time |
| Advice based on my farm, not the market in general | Every analysis reflects the client’s own numbers |
How It Works
- Step 1: Onboarding — we train your team.
Full training for you and your staff. Most brokers are operational within one week. Your client data stays private in your dedicated database. - Step 2: You build a profile for each client.
Enter each client’s operation details — crops, acres, cost of production. Every conversation from that point forward is grounded in their specific numbers, not general market commentary. - Step 3: Your clients see the work you’re doing for them.
Every marketing plan is documented. Every recommendation is on record. Every client has a clear, current picture of where they stand. That’s what a professional advisory relationship looks like.
