We have six facilities with more than 7.2 million bushels of storage. We continue to expand and upgrade our grain facilities, adding bin space and improving dumping speeds at all our locations.
With our set up of large pits, you simply pull in, dump and leave to get back to the field for the next load.
We also offer storage at competitive rates.
Our grain facilities are located in Addieville, Mascoutah (wheat only), Okawville, Pierron, St. Libory and Trenton.
Grain
You’ll find our grain bids are extremely competitive, which is thanks in part to our access to markets. This includes rail options out of Addieville and Okawville locations to Southeast U.S. processors, end users, feed areas and poultry areas. We can co-load up to a 90-car unit train.
Our merchandisers will work with you on the pricing strategy you want to employ. In addition to flat price sales, a few options include:
Forward contract – A straightforward way to market grain. There is no minimum bushel amount and no service fee. Unlike options and Minimum Price Contracts, there is no premium to pay. However, with a forward contract, farmers cannot benefit if prices rise.
Basis contract – When basis levels are strong, this contract allows you to lock in that strength and set your futures price later.
Hedge-to-Arrive – This contract allows you to lock in the futures price, while allowing the basis to be set at a later date.
We do have other specialty contracts available as well!
