Free Corn & Soybean Break-Even Calculator

GrainKit gives corn and soybean farmers a free break-even calculator — and a Pro toolkit of crop budgets, cash flow sheets, and grain marketing worksheets.

Separate from software plans · subscriber priority benefit

Rush farm-input order, but your usual co-op or truck is unavailable?

GrainKit is piloting a coordination option for farmers in Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. If seed, fertilizer, feed, or other farm supplies are ready for pickup but your usual co-op or truck cannot cover the run, submit the details for coordination and scheduling review. It may reduce the time and coordination burden of calling around for a backup, but we do not promise savings, coverage, speed, or a driver. This is an early pilot — not instant checkout or a completed delivery — and we'll follow up with pricing and availability. Independent truckers and haulers can also register to haul loads for the pilot.

GrainKit subscribers (any paid tier) get priority handling on delivery requests once the pilot is fulfilling orders.

$14.50/mile basis, $200 minimum, with fixed distance tiers — see planned pricing

🌱 Founding Customer Pricing: the first 5 real deliveries get 35% off — applied automatically at checkout.

Prefer to stay free? Keep editing the inputs and run another calculation — no email or purchase required.

Enter your email only if you want this one-time calculation sent to you. It does not create an account, start a newsletter, sign you up for Price Alerts, or include the Pro templates.

Optional · after your calculation

Want a short tour of the Pro tools?

GrainKit will send a short educational series introducing one existing Pro tool at a time. This is separate from your calculation result: it does not create an account, start Price Alerts, subscribe you to a paid plan, or include paid downloads. You can unsubscribe from any email.

Track your break-even over the season. This works for GrainKit Pro, Team Plan, and Full Toolkit access — enter the email your access is registered under. Free calculator use alone does not create history.

Get notified when corn/soybean prices cross your break-even price. This is a separate, ongoing opt-in — not the one-time email above. Nobody is signed up automatically; unsubscribe anytime.

Legacy alert option: everything in the free alert above, plus a weekly market digest — separate from both the core software plans and the broader Market Insights offer.
