Producer
At AgrisAcademy, we recognize the substantial gap between the advice farmers receive about the effective marketing of their production and what they truly require. With firsthand experience as farmers and over 50 years of expertise at a major grain and processing company, we’ve witnessed growers missing out on millions of dollars in opportunities. These losses often result from market speculation and not using the appropriate risk management and merchandising tools for the job.
AgrisAcademy LLC isn’t a brokerage or advisory firm; rather, we are dedicated to providing education and consultancy in world-class commodity risk management and merchandising skills. Our objective is to generate consistent and REPEATABLE outcomes for your operations, while also leveling the playing field with your buyers.
Through learning the insights of the industry, we’ve acquired invaluable knowledge. We firmly believe that by simplifying concepts and offering pertinent real-world examples, in conjunction with your eagerness to improve, both you and key members of your team can evolve and expand your capabilities. We contend that farms often invest excessive time fixating on uncontrollable events and data. Shifting this valuable time towards acquiring a lifelong skill will not only fortify your operational competitiveness today but for generations to come.
We present four distinct offerings for producers: Our Merchant Masterclass, personalized one-on-one engagements, targeted consultations for specific issues, and workshops tailored to producer groups. You can find detailed explanations of each below, along with instructions on how to enroll. In case of any uncertainty, please feel free to contact us with your inquiries. Our email and phone contacts can be found at the bottom of all pages on our website.
Providing world class education opportunities to farmers that give them the skill to merchandise, manage risk, and increase the profitability of their production with confidence.
AgrisAcademy LLC is not a broker or an advisor but a company dedicated to educating and consulting in world class risk management skills. Our goal is to produce long-term and REPEATABLE results for your operation.

Bring us into the entirety of your merchandising, teaching, and strategy. We will come to where you are, sit at the table, and go deeply into all the main topics over the year. We will be on-call for you as needed, when needed, for ongoing education and trade-by-trade support. Consider us an extension of your team, ready as needed to transform you promptly and comprehensively into a world-class risk management and merchandising entity.
