About Us

Our mission

Leslie-Vicary-1

“To empower agricultural producers with innovative, integrated software solutions that unify financial, production, and operational data—enabling smarter decisions, stronger businesses, and a more connected agricultural ecosystem.”

The Mutual Agricultural Software Alliance (MASA) is a farmer-owned organization dedicated to building the future of agricultural software. As an umbrella company, MASA owns and develops a suite of advanced tools tailored specifically to meet the needs of producers. At the core of our work is a transformative financial hub—one that connects accounting, crop and livestock production, and third-party applications into a unified, intelligent system.

Rooted in over four decades of experience through the FBS Systems platform, MASA delivers more than just technology. We offer a vision: that producers should have control over their data, clarity in their finances, and confidence in their decisions. MASA’s software is designed with producers, for producers—providing unmatched transparency, scalability, and performance for farms and ranches of all sizes.

By linking real-time, reconciled data with integration capabilities, MASA bridges the gap between farm operations and the tools used by consultants, lenders, and partners. We are creating not just software, but a connected ecosystem—one that supports collaboration, innovation, and long-term agricultural success.
