Frequently asked questions
Where does the data come from?+
Yield data from Statistics Canada (Table 32-10-0002-01) going back to 1976. Commodity prices from ICE and CBOT futures. Satellite NDVI from Sentinel-2 via Google Earth Engine. Weather from Open-Meteo. Land price baselines from Farm Credit Canada and StatsCan. All sources are institutional-grade and publicly verifiable.
How often is it updated?+
Scorecards refresh every Tuesday morning. Commodity prices update daily. Satellite imagery pulls weekly with cloud-cover filtering. Weather data is near real-time. Your Tuesday digest reflects the most current data available at time of send.
Is this for farmers or investors?+
Both. Farmers use it to benchmark their region's yield performance and monitor agronomic stress signals. Land investors use it to identify undervalued regions and track market momentum. The signals are the same — the interpretation depends on your position.
What does the confidence score mean?+
Confidence measures agreement, not size. Five independent indicators each vote bullish, bearish, or neutral: yield anomaly, yield trend, satellite NDVI against its seasonal baseline, weather, and soil moisture. 80% means they nearly all agree. 40% means they conflict — dig deeper before acting. 30% means yield data is missing for that region. The cap is 80% on purpose: a regional model built on public data should never claim certainty. Data freshness is reported separately on each scorecard.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. No contracts, no lock-in. Early access subscribers lock in the $149/month rate permanently — if you leave and come back, the rate may be higher.
Can I share this with clients?+
Yes. Subscribers can forward the weekly digest to clients, buyers, or partners. Brokers use AgriIntel to bring data-backed talking points to listing conversations — the key takeaway and confidence-scored signals are designed to be quotable and shareable. One subscription covers your personal use and client-facing conversations.
What regions are covered?+
27 Small Area Data Regions across Saskatchewan and Alberta — covering approximately 80% of Canadian cultivated farmland by area. Saskatchewan regions 1-19, Alberta regions 10-70. Expansion to Manitoba and other provinces is planned after the core product is proven.
