Here's how it works

Step 1

An Indigo representative will come and pull samples from your fields up to two weeks prior to harvest or from a grain sample that you have collected

Step 2

The representative will test these samples with a portable grain sensor, and share your protein, moisture, and test weight results immediately

Step 3

Your Account Manager will search for the most profitable bids in Indigo Marketplace for your quality and location, and call to walk through their findings

Step 4

If you transact through Indigo Marketplace, you will be reimbursed for half the initial cost of testing

Open Quotation Mark With Indigo, we’re looking at safe products that we can get maximum value out of. The Indigo model lets us try new products and compare them with peers around the state of Kansas. It’s very exciting, because we’re all trying to get back to what’s natural — what’s safe for our farms and our families.

Open Quotation Mark Indigo fits in by connecting farmers and buyers. Farmers are price-takers, so they can always use help marketing grain. If Indigo can help with this marketing and get farmers a price that exceeds the cost of production, farmers are willing to invest more in the quality of their crop.
