Brownfield’s Brent Barnett talks with Brooke Achenback, Regional Sales Manager with ADM, about the Producer Direct Grain Delivery program. Their goal with this program is to to make grain delivery as convenient and efficient as possible for producers. With ADM’s extensive footprint across Iowa, farmers can deliver grain to locations that work best for their operation. Through Producer Direct, farmers can connect directly with ADM representatives to identify delivery opportunities, access competitive grain bids and connect with ADM’s global demand network.

What does a strong grain marketing relationship look like? For ADM Account Manager Hannah Parcher, it starts with understanding farmers, building trust and maintaining open communication. By staying connected with producers throughout the year, ADM representatives can help farmers navigate market opportunities, explore delivery options and find solutions tailored to the unique needs of their operations. Brownfield’s Brent Barnett talks more with Parcher about how her experience on the family farm allows her insight into producer challenges and decision-making.
