Farmers Business Network® (FBN), the leading agriculture marketplace and farmer-to-farmer network, today announced the launch of FBN Market Intelligence, a single service that gives farmers an AI-powered crop price outlook, local cash market changes, basis trends and anomalies, and daily updates to stay on top of the key themes in market focus.
At the center of the service is FBN’s AI Crop Price Indicator, a tool built to take the emotion out of market perspectives. Here's how: it doesn’t read headlines, it doesn’t know what the crop looks like out your window. Instead, it reads data. Trained on decades of market history and thousands of data features, the AI Crop Price Indicator produces a probabilistic, model-derived outlook on corn and soybean prices – giving farmers an independent second opinion to help interpret market conditions and weigh alongside everything else they already take in. It’s not analyst opinion or newsletter consensus; it’s a data-driven outlook built to be the key tool in every farmer’s marketing decisions.
“We’re not in the business of making predictions – we’re in the business of arming farmers with the most complete data and intelligence we can put in front of them,” said Cody Bills, Director of Market Data & Subscriptions at FBN. “FBN Market Intelligence gives farmers a clear, data-driven perspective, with the tools to make more informed decisions for their own operations.”
The new service includes:
AI Crop Price Indicator: Uses AI and machine learning to sift through thousands of data features, delivering a model-derived outlook on corn and soybean prices – built from market data, not analyst opinions.
Cash Market Reports: Shows farmers the price they actually net after freight – comparing local bids on a true FOB-farm basis using each farmer’s own location, freight, and storage assumptions. Reports are personalized and track basis changes and regional trends to support informed cash marketing decisions.
Constant Transparency: Through weekly newsletters and text updates, the service delivers the latest data and market developments at the local, state, and national level.
Cash Marketing Recommendations: FBN Market Intelligence’s percent-sold levels are a broad cash-market benchmark that reflects our conviction and dedication to disciplined marketing.
"The market data and intelligence give me more confidence in my own marketing decisions – I feel better informed about what’s happening in the market and what it might mean for my operation," said Ken Christensen, a corn and soybean farmer from Pipestone, Minnesota.
In a year where grain prices are down, FBN Market Intelligence is a service that earns its keep at $199 per quarter. Farmers can start a trial on this webpage.
