Market Development Fund Programs for AgTech Partners

Your MDF-powered channel partner for the USAC grain market. You’ve built breakthrough grain technology. We built the channel partner program to bring it to market.

4 to 14

Month Sales Cycle

USAC grain market complexity drives sales-cycle variance, with 4 to 14 months typical at facility-scale prospects and longer cycles at multinational grain majors. Your cash runway can’t absorb the unknown.

$800K+

Year for an Internal Team

Building your own USAC grain sales team costs $800K+ per year before the first sale. Reps, leadership, technical support, on-road costs. Most founders cannot justify the burn.

35 to 60%

Distributor Margins

Traditional generalist distributors extract 35 to 60% margins (practical average around 40%), provide zero grain-specialist expertise, and block your customer relationships.

You’ve solved a grain problem. The market just can’t find you. That’s the crack in the foundation under most AgTech entries into USAC grain.

Traditional Path vs AGID

Without AGID:

Raise $5M → Build sales team ($800K+/year burn) → 4 to 14 month sales cycles with no specialist channel → Burn through runway → Raise more capital (dilution) → Repeat

With AGID:

Partner with AGID → Access established USAC grain relationships → First qualified grain conversations in 120 days → Scale without dilution → Stronger exit multiple
