 Oct. 5, 2012 Source: Growers Edge news release Using your smartphone to make grain transactions, monitor basis, record and track grain transactions and view market commentary reports is now a reality with the second generation Growers Edge iPhone and Android app. "With the original Growers Edge smartphone app, growers could search for the best price cash bid within a 100-mile radius of their farm," said Craig Mouchka, president of Growers Edge. "Now with these enhanced features, Growers Edge users have remote access to more of our online features designed to help them enhance and track overall farm profitability." Growers Edge users can view basis charting for all grain buying locations within a 100-mile radius of their operation and view historical swings in the basis spread for each of their buying markets. Combined with the Growers Edge best cash price bid tool, growers now have remote access to a tool that can help them better market their grain and project future pricing trends. Placing and recording grain transactions (cash, forward, basis and HTA contracts) to their Growers Edge account is simplified by using the smartphone app. Growers can save time by recording the transactions via their smartphone and update their Web account while on the go - freeing up time to focus on other aspects of the farming operation. Growers can also access the Growers Edge daily Grain TV show and the vast array of market commentary reports, all provided within the convenience of their smartphone. Plus, growers can receive alerts for premium cash price sale opportunities and important updates. Remote updates to a grower's Profit Manager account - acreage changes, harvest yields, input costs, profit per acre goal, bushels sold and price received for each crop - provide immediate insight into how these changes will impact their profitability. Growers Edge users can also view multiple commodity markets. Android smartphone users currently using the Growers Edge smartphone app will receive an automatic update to the new version, while iPhone users will need to visit the app store and manually update to the new version. Growers-edge.com provides farmers a free, one-stop resource for their business and marketing needs. Currently, more than 14,000 farmers use growers-edge.com to help enhance their profits.
