June 5, 2023, Central Farm Service (CFS), Headquartered in Truman, Minnesota, serving more than 4,000 producers in southern Minnesota and Northern Iowa, welcomes Nick Jackson as the Vice President of Grain. 

 

Nick was a Grain Division Manager at Superior Ag in Indiana, a multilocation, grain, energy, feed, and agronomy cooperative. Before Superior Ag, he was a Senior Strategic Risk Analyst at Indigo Ag and a Regional Grain Origination Manager at Kokomo Grain. Growing up in the grain business, Nick worked at the elevator his dad managed.

 

“His experience in merchandising and operations, a strong commitment to safety, and team leadership brought him to the top of a group of very qualified candidates,” said Merlyn Kruger, CFS CEO. "We look forward to having Nick join our team, states Kruger."

 

After serving in the US Army (Explosive Ordinance Disposal), he attended the University of Illinois, getting a BA in Environmental Science and later an MBA in Finance from Concordia University.
