farmgate
Field entry point
Farmgate refers to the point where agricultural products leave a farm, used especially in pricing: farmgate prices are what farmers receive before transportation, processing, or retail markups.
The term appears in agricultural economics and policy discussions about commodity markets.
As an adjective, it modifies sales or values measured at this point: farmgate sales, farmgate value.
