The FCE Grain Department continues to grow and is ready to assist in marketing decisions for your farm. In December we added Mark Schoenfeld to our team, who brings significant knowledge and an in depth understanding of grain markets and marketing tools to help boost profitability.

Going forward, we would like to establish guaranteed hours where a representative from our team will be in the office.

A Grain Marketing Representative will be in the Hanley Falls office Tuesday & Thursday from 9:00am-Noon and in Montevideo on Monday and Wednesday from 9:00am-Noon.

Walks-ins are always welcome, or feel free to contact us to make an appointment either in the office or on your farm. Remember to ask about the multiple styles of marketing contracts that you can use to fit your individual marketing needs.

Additionally, we usually will be available in person outside of these posted hours or available anytime by phone.
