I was thinking along the same lines as @broswoodwork. Make the listings, being careful to attribute ownership of trademarks and copyright as necessary.
Redirect your selling effort towards farmers rather than the ag service businesses. Farmers don't pay subscriptions, so you need to incorporate a system that identifies your site as the origin of any emails they send to those businesses. You also need to know who has clicked to find the phone number of a business to call, or at least which business number was identified for the farmer.
This way you can use a different approach towards the ag service businesses, because you have proof that your service works.
You will need patience and have to spend a lot of time on this if you want it to work.
