SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (RFD NEWS) — Less than a week remains until the Commodity Classic, the largest farmer-led, farmer-focused event in the country. Attendees will have the chance to explore the latest industry advancements, including new grain management products designed to support producers during the upcoming planting season.
Kerry Hartwig, dryer sales director with Sukup Manufacturing, joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report to share what farmers can expect at their booth this year.
In his interview with RFD NEWS, Hartwig discussed the types of conversations they have at the event and highlighted key considerations for producers storing grain as spring approaches. He also reviewed options for receiving wet grain into storage facilities and why it is so important for farmers to start planning now. In closing, he details where to find the company’s booth at Commodity Classic and invites attendees to stop by.
Large carryover stocks continue to put pressure on commodity prices, creating uncertainty for growers looking to market their grain.
