Who are we?

Mutual Agricutural SOftware Aliance

MASA was founded by a group of customers and producers who share a long-standing history of working with FBS systems. Through years of hands-on experience, collaboration, and industry involvement, this group developed a deep understanding of both the strengths and evolving needs of the platform.

Recognizing the value of working together more closely, these individuals came together to form a cooperative built on shared knowledge, mutual support, and a commitment to continuous improvement. What began as a collaboration among experienced users has grown into MASA—an organization driven by its members and focused on delivering practical solutions, innovation, and long-term value.

Today, MASA represents a unified community of professionals dedicated to advancing the systems they rely on, while supporting one another through collective insight and shared experience.

Where it all started.

FBS Systems

Founded in 1980 in Aledo, Illinois, FBS Systems was created to provide a powerful accounting solution tailored specifically for agricultural producers.

Over the years, we’ve continued to innovate, helping farms optimize their operations and make data-driven decisions with confidence.

Integrating Machine Data

About Cropzilla

Cropzilla

CropZilla enhances farm operations by providing real-time machine data analytics, offering insights into equipment performance, fuel use, and maintenance costs. This helps farmers optimize machinery, reduce downtime, and lower operational costs, enabling smarter, data-driven decisions.

 

When integrated with FBS, CropZilla’s data feeds directly into the accounting system, connecting machine performance with financial tracking. This integration offers a comprehensive view of both operational and financial health, helping farmers make informed investment decisions and track equipment ROI, ultimately boosting profitability and efficiency.

I’ve used CropZilla for 9 years and nothing else plans or tracks costs like it. It helps us plan ahead, learn from the past, and test changes before spending. In year one, two decisions boosted our profitability by 50%. Thinking about a CFO? Start here first.
