November is a big month for shoppers as they search for deals ahead of the holiday season. Farmers Business Network thinks it should be a big month for deals for farmers as well. Co-founder Charles Baron says the company has launched CyberNovember, their biggest online shopping event allowing farmers to nail down 2023 crop plans.
Baron…. “CyberNovember is FBN’s biggest, most comprehensive sale of the year, and it really covers everything that FBN provides in terms of our input products. And it really started a few years ago when FBN started selling products online to growers, realizing consumers have so much fun with Black Friday and Cyber Monday, why shouldn't farmers have that ability, and really just turned into a major event. Farmers have loved it and buy from nearly all 50 states during November.”
Baron says deals on the website span the entire FBN network.
Baron… “We have really outstanding deals and discounts across major products, so especially products like glyphosate and phosphonate, which virtually all farmers need or use. And then we have a number of new things that are coming out. One of the new things is something we call an Acre Pack. And an Acre Pack actually is a digital agronomic support that a grower can use to determine exactly what their input costs per acre are going to be for the year. It allows them to build their acre, start with their herbicide program, start with their seed, set the rates, and then it automatically calculates how much of the product you need to purchase, you can see exactly what your costs are going to be, and you can do your entire program for the year.”
The event is for FBN members, but membership is free. Baron added that financing options are also available.
