Farm-focused accounting
We’re not built for construction, restaurants, or flower shops. We’re built for farms which means we know it’s soil, not dirt and we know that crop year accounting and calendar year bookkeeping are two very different things.
Real-time data
If you want to see exactly where you’re making and losing money by acre, field, or bushel, you’re in the right place.
Backed by numbers
When your field operations and finances are tied to the crop year, you always know your true breakeven.
Stress-free tax season
Generate Schedule F reports and 1099s with one click. Everything’s organized, accurate, and ready when you need it.
Farm management
In the field or the office, track inventory and profitability in real time.
All of your entities
No more logging in and out. Handle multiple farms, entities, and seasons in one place—without the chaos.
Real support
You’ll talk to someone who gets accrual accounting for farms, not just someone who knows what AP stands for.
More than bookkeeping
Enjoy clean, categorized data without digging for missing reports. Everything is synced, ready to share, and accountant-approved.
Super-powered integrations
Sync your John Deere Operations Center and/or Climate FieldView™ accounts in a few clicks to automate field records, inventory, and finances. Connect your bank, credit cards, FS bill import, payroll, 1099s and more into one central hub for easy farm analysis.
Bushels are grown in the field. Profit is made in the office.
You don’t want to spend extra time and money on processes that slow you and your family down. With Traction Ag, you’ll feel confident everything is accounted for without all the time required.
