Farmers Edge and Great Plains Precision Ag (GPPA) announced a partnership to give some farmers in America’s Central Great Plains region access to the Farmers Edge Precision Solutions platform.

The partnership will allow GPPA to introduce farmers to precision agriculture tools including zone soil sampling, on-farm weather stations and highly accurate agronomic recommendations.

With the low commodity prices affecting the current global agriculture market, the partnership could help farmers save money and use inputs optimally.

“GPPA has been providing first-rate, data-enabled agronomic solutions since our inception, but this new partnership with Farmers Edge will ensure that we’re a ‘one-stop shop’ for growers seeking to maximize their yields through precision ag services,” Michael Bahr, President of GPPA said in a release. “Our customers manage some of the most economically vital farmland in the United States, and Farmers Edge will allow them to achieve peak productivity while optimizing resource inputs and cutting costs.”

As many producers look towards precision agriculture to run a more efficient operation, Farmers Edge CEO Wade Barnes said partnering with GPPA is a crucial step in helping farmers access the resources they need.

“As demand spikes for precision ag services throughout the U.S., we’re proud to join forces with GPPA to bring the most cost-effective, easy-to-use, and innovative agricultural technologies to growers throughout the Central Great Plains,” Barnes said in the release.
