For producers
Get more for your grain, with less of the hassle
Farms, estates, contractors and farm management businesses. Put your grain in front of every vetted buyer at once, know what it's worth before you sell, and see the whole year in one place.
Features & benefits
Everything the farm's year needs, for you and your business
Ringing round for prices, guessing whether a bid is fair, paperwork in a drawer and a spreadsheet that's never quite right. Hectare puts the whole of it in one place, from budget to payment
The bids come to you
Say what you've got and when you want an answer, and every vetted buyer bids before then. Compare them side by side and take the one that suits you, on price, movement or terms, or none at all.
- Every bid side by side
- No obligation to sell
- Free to sell
Know where you stand, live
What you've grown, what's in the shed, what's sold and what's still to sell, read against the live market. Set the number the business needs and see if you're on course while there's time to act.
- What's left, to the tonne
- Your breakeven beside every target
- Deals done elsewhere count too
Know when it's moving and when you'll be paid
Every contract becomes a calendar of loads. See what's due to move, when the money should land, and when a delivery is confirmed, without chasing anyone.
- One calendar for every contract
- Know what you're owed and when
- No more chasing for an update
Know what it's worth before you sell
Prices from real bids and trades near you, not a national average. Set the price you want and get told the moment the market gets there.
- Real prices, not averages
- Alerts when the market moves your way
- By region, by month
Testimonials
I sold my grain for £5 per tonne more than any of my local contacts had offered.
The platform is so easy to use and such a time saver. I got bids from all the merchants I'd normally call plus some I wouldn't, without having to spend hours on the phone.
This is a straight forward platform to use which works well, removes a lot of hassle and generates the market exposure required to optimise pricing.
Questions
Questions we get asked
No. Putting grain up, taking bids and accepting one are free, and so is seeing where you stand.
You don't have to. Bring them with you: their bids sit beside everyone else's, and you'll find out whether the price you were getting was a good one. Hectare adds to your relationships; it doesn't replace them.
More than a hundred vetted buyers, from regional merchants to national merchants and end users. Every one is credit-checked before they can bid, and checked again while they're on Hectare.
