Central Farm Service is pleased to announce Nick Jackson as Vice President of Grain. 

 

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.

 

Bringing Nick on board in June will allow time to transition the position before Dennis Inman, the current Vice President of Grain, retires in the fall. 

 

"Having Nick on board at CFS will allow us to continue to provide trusted service and cooperative value to our members," states Merlyn Kruger, CFS CEO.

Corn:
Nearby corn was under pressure a bit from concerns about slower demand for US corn. While July did climb as high as 6.25 on the day it settled out down 4-3/4 to 6.12-1/2. Otherwise, corn largely traded higher on concerns about this hot dry weather and declining crop conditions.
