Farmers Business Network

Farmers Business Network (FBN) is a leading U.S.-based agricultural technology and services company headquartered in San Carlos, California. Founded in 2014, FBN was built on the principle of putting farmers first by providing transparent data, analytics, and competitive purchasing options that help producers make more informed and profitable decisions. The platform aggregates anonymized agronomic data from member farms across North America to generate benchmark insights on seed performance, crop protection products, and farm economics, empowering farmers with information historically available only to large agribusinesses. FBN has expanded its services to include direct purchasing of inputs at competitive prices, crop marketing tools, financing options, and crop insurance, creating a comprehensive farmer-focused ecosystem. In recent years FBN has invested in sustainability programs, including carbon farming initiatives that compensate farmers for adopting practices such as cover cropping, reduced tillage, and nutrient management improvements that sequester carbon and reduce environmental impact. The company’s data-driven approach enables more precise resource application, reducing waste and lowering the ecological footprint of member farms. FBN operates across the U.S., Canada, and Australia, and its growing membership represents millions of acres of farmland committed to more efficient and sustainable production. The company’s mission reflects a broader commitment to empowering farmers as the central agents of change in building a more sustainable and equitable food system.
