GCC GRAIN

Since all farms differ in their approach to marketing, we believe you should have options when it comes to handling your grain.  At the Garden City Co-op, we take an individualized approach in providing multiple marketing and contracting options and have a knowledgeable team of experts here to help you find the best fit for you, your operation and your risk tolerance.  

With 21 grain elevators covering an area of approximately 200 miles, a total federally licensed storage capacity of over 37 million bushels and ranking in the top 100 major grain facilities in North America (Sosland “Grain & Milling Annual Report”), the Garden City Co-op’s aim is to provide speed and efficiency as well as a stable and dependable marketplace for our farmer members.

The Garden City Co-op handles Hard Red Wheat, Hard White Wheat, Milo, Corn, Soybeans and Sunflowers. Check with your local elevator for the receiving availability of a crop.

Forward Thinking

Forward Thinking

Jun 09, 2023 | Garden City
One key piece in a solid marketing plan is the use of forward contracting.  While it wouldn’t be advisable to sell 100% of your operation’s expected crop, there can be a lot of value in locking in a price on a percentage of what you intend to raise.
