I use inventory in QuickBooks for farming which is both painless and surprisingly handy. https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2024-March/111175.html shows GnuCash can handle inventory but it is not properly documented. Interestingly before the above quote the linked tutorial has a link to https://www.manager.io/ which is a well regarded fully featured free accounting package with inventory.
