This company is leading the way in bringing technology to grain elevators!

One agriculture technology company has its eye on making grain elevators more efficient, specifically when it comes to accounting. Leaders at AgTrax say it is a project that has been in the works for more than a decade.

“We consider ourselves the owner of the data for the organization since we handle the majority of the software applications and everything flows through our billing system into our financials. About 13 years ago we decided that our application was so big in the number of modules and things like that, that we couldn’t be the best in every department when there were companies in departments that were solely written for that specific purpose,” said Gayle Lewis.

AgTrax works with 20 other companies. They tell aginfo.net that the goal is to make sure the customer has a seamless elevator experience.
