Welcome to Bushel’s corner of the internet.

Why does Bushel exist? To ensure humanity and our planet have a secure future, Bushel believes agriculture is the most important industry on earth. For our food supply chain to become sustainable, efficient, and transparent, we need digital infrastructure to transmit information across the whole supply chain. 

Every hope and dream of sustainable food at the scale of 10B+ people rests on the ag supply chain’s ability to transform digitally. Digital infrastructure for the supply chain will ensure humanity's secure and healthy future. 

Bushel builds software for the grain industry. Our mission is to connect the Grain Industry through digital infrastructure.

Today, we have the largest network of elevators and growers, connecting the most extensive data set in the industry. How have we done that? By offering real value to growers and grain companies through a digital set of tools, including:

  • Software integrations that show near real-time business information between growers and grain companies
