Phone App Puts Farm Info at Your Fingertips

App PicGrab your smartphone and download a free app that gives you the information you need to make anywhere, anytime decisions for your farm. It's the app for Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB) members.

This app offers in-the-know information:

  • Local Weather
  • Local Cash Bids
  • Future Quotes
  • IFB News & Events
  • Legislative Action Request Notices

"The best feature about this app is how easy it is to customize it for your farm," says IFB's Ted Jankowski. "You can use your GPS to get local weather and bids. Or add a zip code to make a selective location, such as your home farm, as the default."

Jankowski continues, "You can customize your futures quotes, too. You can set it to show just grain, just livestock, or both."

Members can download the app for the Android phone, iPhone and iPad.

Android: Visit the Google Play Store and search for ILFB. When the search returns the Illinois Farm Bureau app, click on the install button and download it to your device, just as you would any other free app.

iPhone or iPad: Visit the App Store and search for ILFB. When the search returns the Illinois Farm Bureau app, click on the install button and download it to your device, just as you would any other free app.
