The Grain Elevator's Secret Sauce (Spoiler: It's NOT Price!)

S2E4 Welcome back to The Elevator's Cut, where Roger Gattis and Jason Wheeler cut through the misconceptions and complexities of the grain industry with a healthy dose of humor and pragmatism. This episode, they tackle the "joys" of corn planting season, dissecting USDA numbers and the ever-predictable weather chaos. They then dive into the wild world of grain spreads and basis trading, revealing why the math might make your head spin (and why your elevator isn't making a killing on price). Plus, get the inside scoop on why grain elevators actually make their money, and why co-op retirements are causing such a stir. And for the record, the internet has spoken: ranch is NOT a spread! Tune in for straight talk, funny takes, and maybe a few eye-rolls, all aimed at shedding light on the real challenges and opportunities in the grain business.
