Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a method, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get scale tickets” would look like.

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

Bushel’s own options

Bushel's developer documentation is for grain companies and the services they work with: an API to push a grain company's data into Bushel, an eSign API, and Connections, a data feed for third-party services that a farmer opts in to. Bushel supplies each integrator's credentials. Nothing in it lets a farmer get credentials for their own tickets and contracts: farmers use their grain buyer's portal or app.

Signing in to Bushel

Each grain company has its own Bushel-powered portal and branded app, and Bushel's FAQ says farmers log in with their phone number. With Fous you sign in once through your grain buyer's own portal sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256 and never shown to your code or AI agents.

Worth knowing

One portal per grain company

Bushel tells farmers to find the log-in on their agribusiness partner's website or to search the partner's name in the app stores. If you sell to two buyers, you build a method for each portal.

Filters and grade factors vary by buyer

Scale Tickets filter by Commodity, time range, Account and Location, but a filter with fewer than two values is hidden. The grade factor beside each ticket is set per commodity, Moisture by default.

Split tickets show each owner's share

A ticket can be split between accounts, each with a Split Owner and Split Percentage. Ticket details link to related Contracts or Settlements when the grain company provides them.

Priced means futures and basis are both set

A contract's pricing status is Priced, Partial or Unpriced, and a pricing line counts as priced only when both its futures price and basis price are set. Open contracts come first, by nearest delivery date.
