Grain marketing = view Cargill cash bids and futures, place firm offers, sell 24/7 via flat-price, basis or futures-only contracts, set futures/basis on open contracts, view contracts/scale tickets/settlements, request payment or defer payment, submit flex scale tickets (vendor 'Go Digital' page). Elevator integration is Cargill-only (it is Cargill's own account app). Cargill Elevate+ is a separate enhanced advisory tier (market insights, tailored cash grain recommendations) that Cargill says includes access to Bushel Farm farm-management software. Mobile app on Apple App Store and Google Play. No AI assistant, accounting, agronomy, weather or equipment features described.
