What we trade

Commodities

We handle the three core crops of the American Midwest — and know their markets, logistics and seasonal rhythms inside out.

🌽

Corn

Yellow #2 corn, basis contracts and flat price. We originate from Iowa, Illinois and Indiana elevators with direct rail and barge access.

🫘

Soybeans

Cash and forward contracts for #1 and #2 yellow soybeans. Crush and export destinations. Flexible load-out scheduling.

🌾

Wheat

Soft red winter and hard red winter. Milling and feed quality. We work with regional mills and export terminals on the Gulf.

How we work

Operations

We run a network of country elevators and lease capacity at strategic transload points. Grain moves by truck, rail and river — whatever the situation calls for.

Our approach

We are a privately held company. That means no earnings calls, no quarterly targets to hit, and no pressure to move grain on someone else's timeline. We work on relationships built over years with farmers, elevators and end users who value a counterparty that does what it says.

Company

About Midwest Grain Co.

Founded in 2006 by a pair of corn-belt traders who had spent a decade at larger firms, Midwest Grain Co. was built on a simple premise: smaller, more responsive, and closer to the farmer.

We are headquartered in Ames, Iowa, with storage and origination presence in central Illinois and southern Indiana. Our team of eleven includes merchandisers, logistics coordinators and a small origination team that spends most of its time on the road.

We are licensed, bonded and registered with the USDA and state grain regulatory agencies in Iowa, Illinois and Indiana.
