SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (RFD NEWS) — We are just one week away from Commodity Classic, the nation’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused event, set to take place this year in San Antonio. The annual gathering will spotlight the latest industry advancements as producers from across the country come together.
Fred Nichols, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer for Huma, joined us on Wednesday’s Market Day Report for a preview of what attendees can expect.
In his interview with RFD NEWS, Nichols shared what he is most looking forward to at this year’s event and discussed the products Huma plans to highlight on the trade show floor.
With crop input costs top of mind for many farmers, Nichols also outlined how the company is working to address those concerns and support growers navigating tight margins. He touched on any special offers available during the show and explained how attendees can connect with the Huma team while in San Antonio.
Weak crop margins and tariff uncertainty are delaying machinery purchases and signaling slower capital investment across U.S. agriculture.
