I've put together a free crop planner using Alberta's and Manitoba's 2026 crop budgets, and I'd like some farmers to try it before seeding decisions get made.
You tap your province and soil zone, and it ranks each crop by margin per acre, either after all costs or after direct costs only. It also shows the break-even yield and how many bushels you'd have to spare or be short. You can change any yield or price, and put in your own acres and land rent. There are one-tap what-ifs too: fertilizer up 20%, prices down 10%, a short crop, a big crop.

There's nothing to sign up for. It works on a phone, and "Copy link" saves all your numbers in the link, so you can send it to a partner or your accountant.
It doesn't have Saskatchewan yet, because the province's budgets need its permission before I can load them. If you're in Saskatchewan, the Alberta zone that matches your soil is the closest thing for now. It's a planner, not advice, and the budget numbers are the province's, not mine.
If a number looks wrong for your area, tell me and I'll check it against the source
