From Farm Problem to Global AgTech Company: The Bushel Plus Story: with Marcel Kringe | Ep. 120

This episode is a masterclass in what real innovation in agriculture actually looks like.In this conversation, Marcel Kringe — founder of Bushel Plus — walks through how a simple, frustrating, and overlooked problem on the farm turned into a global business serving farmers in over 45 countries. What started as trying to figure out grain loss behind a combine became a system that is now influencing how some of the largest equipment manufacturers in the world think about data, automation, and efficiency.Marcel doesn’t come at this from theory or Silicon Valley thinking. This is built from the ground up — from working in the dust, seeing real losses, and asking a simple question: there has to be a better way.The result is a business rooted in first principles: measure what matters, solve a real problem, and create immediate value for the farmer.If you care about agtech, innovation, or building something that actually works in the field — this one is worth your time.MEET THE GUESTMarcel Kringe is the Founder and CEO of Bushel Plus (Soon to be BranValt), a globally recognized ag-tech company specializing in harvest optimization.
