WEST FARGO, N.D. — Titan Machinery (Nasdaq:TITN) announced today a strategic alliance with Decisive Farming Corp.

"We teamed up with Decisive Farming because they have a complete and reliable solution in the market," says David Meyer, CEO of Titan Machinery. "We're rolling out Decisive Farming's My Farm Manager data management platform to our field staff and getting them trained. Through the platform, our customers will have access to a suite of over 10 farm management services, with more expected in the future."
The My Farm Manager platform allows Decisive Farming's team and other service partners to provide data management and expertise on GIS, agronomy, and crop marketing for the grower.
