Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AgMobile at none against Lancaster Farming's shown. AgMobile also leads on review sentiment (76% vs 67%) and ratings volume (411 vs 88). Lancaster Farming's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
