New Gateway to Agronomic Intelligence and First Agronomics Partnership with FarmQA

[ALPHARETTA, GA] - April 22, 2025 - Access to timely, accurate field-level data has become essential to food processors working to improve operational efficiency, sustainability, and food safety. To address this need, ExtendAg, the agriculture industry's leading purpose-built software solution for raw product procurement and operations, today announced the launch of its new platform-agnostic agronomics gateway—a powerful integration solution designed to work with any agronomics system, regardless of platform or provider.

Logos of ExtendAg, a Cultura company, and farmQA are shown with a plus sign between them, highlighting a partnership to enhance field-level data for food processors.The first integration partner through this new gateway is FarmQA, a digital agronomy platform that helps crop consultants and advisors capture real-time field insights—everything from planting and growth stage data to scouting notes and fertility plans. With this partnership, processors using ExtendAg gain the ability to seamlessly capture, analyze, and act on agronomic insights directly within their existing workflows. FarmQA's agronomic data flows seamlessly into ExtendAg, giving processors unprecedented visibility into what's happening in the field before the product reaches the plant.

Key benefits to processors include:

Streamlined field data capture - Easily collect critical field-level data such as crop milestones, planting records, and scouting observations that matter most to processors.
Enhanced food safety compliance - Import chemical application data from third-party systems to support traceability and simplify reporting.
Simplified mapping and visualization - Save time and boost accuracy by capturing field boundaries, scouting points, and other georeferenced data from multiple sources into a single, unified map view.
Improved in-field scouting - Conduct faster, more efficient scouting with tools that support real-time data entry on crop conditions, cultural practices, and potential issues.
"With ExtendAg's new gateway, we're giving processors the ability to expand their visibility into agronomics data—enabling deeper insights into decision making and without disrupting their core workflows," said John Roos, General Manager at ExtendAg. "We partnered with FarmQA as our first integration partner based on their reputable presence in the industry and the platform's intuitive and configurable architecture. This gateway and partnership reflect ExtendAg's long-term vision of building a more connected, data-driven supply chain from field to the consumer. We look forward to working with FarmQA to advance smarter, more connected food supply chains."

"Technology is the key to feeding and fueling a growing world more efficiently," said Kris Poulson, CEO of FarmQA. "This partnership with ExtendAg connects field-level agronomic decisions directly to the systems processors use every day. By combining FarmQA's strength in capturing real-time insights from the field with ExtendAg's proven operational tools, we're enabling every stakeholder—from agronomist to processor—to do more with the land, time, and resources they have. It's exactly the kind of collaboration the ag industry needs."
