Your local cooperative grain team offers a variety of contract options; Fixed Price, Basis, Futures/Cash, Price Later, and Minimum Price, plus the ability to place offers for future pricing. Reach out to your local grain office to find the best fit for your operation.

Harvest is a busy time, but with the right tools and support, it can also be one of the most rewarding. Let’s make this season a successful one.

It brought in calls to the energy division that flooding on some of our customer’s property tipped over their propane tanks. The first thing propane tanks do when the water gets high enough for them to float is roll over. This rollover can allow liquid to reach the vapor valve. The last thing you want coming through a propane line and traveling to your house is propane liquid. It can cause a pressure surge, which over-pressurizes the piping, regulators and appliance valves. This can cause leaks and a potentially very dangerous situation.
