CONTACTS

At Alliance Ag & Grain, we offer competitive pricing to our farmers by maintaining relationships with multiple grain buyers and keeping on top of trends across a number of markets. There’s a lot of volatility in the grain market, so having a solid marketing plan in place is key to your success and profitability. We’re here to help you work through your production costs and take a layered approach to market opportunities by offering a wide variety of services to provide several purchase contract options.

We recently added Fowler, Minneola and Bloom and now operate 19 different grain locations in southern Kansas with a total licensed capacity of 26.5 million bushels to ensure that we can meet your storage needs. Included within those locations are two 110-car unit train facilities, located in Wright, KS (BNSF Railway) and Haviland, KS (Union Pacific). As one of only a few companies across Kansas with two train loaders located on separate rail lines, we have the ability to transport grain across the country.

If you store grain on-farm, we have a network of industry connections to help you get the most for your grain. Call  Blake Connelly Vice President - Grain, in the Spearville office for bids to be picked up at your location or delivered to regional end users.
