OUR CUSTOMER'S REVIEW
What Customer's Talking
About Us
I've built a strong relationship around trust with the team at Farmer's Keeper. Their quick responses and knowledgeable customer service help keep me up to date on the grain markets.
We'll sell grain to whoever's got the best basis in our area. With Farmer's Keeper, we can price futures without committing bushels to one elevator. Now we know we'll get the best basis available later in the season.
Margin calls have crippled Farms over the past couple of years. Farmer's Keeper gives us the ability to sell cash grain without worrying about margin calls if the market goes against us.
I'm too busy on the farm to watch the markets every second and study marketing strategies. I have peace of mind knowing some of my bushels are in a Farmer's Keeper Managed Pricing Program so I can get back to farming.
