$31.78B Nebraska market. $53.8M modeled annual SPAG021 revenue at launch pricing.

Cattle, hogs, corn and soybeans: $32.84B of 2025 Nebraska output measured by USDA, plus the $7.9B feeder-cattle trade into Nebraska feedlots that USDA receipts do not count. At full statewide penetration and the launch rates, that is roughly $53.8M of annual SPAG021 platform revenue, and $86M at the post-proof rates. Producers and buyers keep 88.5% of the value created. The Year-1 proof set touches only $196M of GMV.

How the launch case is calculated

One platform. Priced to each market's real economics.

Feeder cattle pay 2–4% to sell today, so SPAG021 charges 35 bps. Fed cattle pay no commission, so the case is price discovery and the take is a light 5 bps. Corn and soybeans mostly carry their cost in the basis, so the case is basis improvement at 15 bps. Hogs are about 99% contracted or packer-owned; the open slice is independent producers and feeder pigs, priced like fed cattle.

The disruption split: across all four markets, producers and buyers keep 88.5% of the modeled value at launch pricing; SPAG021 captures 11.5%. At the post-proof rates participants still keep 82.3%. LP financing income is excluded from this split.
What changed from v1: v1 priced all $20.34B of USDA cattle receipts as commission-paying feeder sales. USDA's own data shows those receipts are mostly slaughter-weight fed cattle sold feedlot-to-packer with no commission, while the commission-paying feeder trade isn't in the figure at all. Splitting the two cuts modeled cattle revenue from $71.2M to $36.6M and Nebraska revenue from $88.4M to $53.8M. Corn and soybeans are unchanged.
01 · Funded proof

What the first 12 months are designed to prove.

Three deliberately small pilots, each about $65M of physical GMV, form a comparable proof set across livestock, grain and oilseeds. The cattle pilot is feeder cattle, the commission channel.

02 · Nebraska economic ceiling

What the same economics look like across the full state market.

A 100% penetration sensitivity view using each simulator's default assumptions. An economic ceiling, not a Year-1 adoption forecast.

Platform GMV · 100%$37.24B
Participant value$412M
SPAG021 revenue · 100%$53.8M
SPAG021 revenue · 25%$13.5M
Reading the ceiling: platform GMV ($37.24B) is larger than the USDA figure ($31.78B) because it adds the feeder trade into Nebraska feedlots, which USDA excludes as sales between farms. The two cattle transactions are different trades with different counterparties, so this is not double counting.
03 · U.S. scale case

Nebraska is the proof. The United States is the platform opportunity.

Built state by state from 2025 USDA data with the same channel logic as Nebraska: fed cattle from each state's feedlot marketings, feeders from inshipments, hogs from state hog data, corn and soybeans from state crop values. See the US expansion sim for waves and the federal scenario.
