Today, we had the pleasure of meeting with students from the Masters program of Sustainable Ag at UofG 🌾

We had the opportunity to showcase our Thamesville elevator and discuss our operation within this community. 🏘️ Our team highlighted Great Lakes Grain sustainability programs, our impact in the grain supply chain and our AGRIS agronomy partner. Great questions and discussion from the class sparked conversations about showcasing the story of the Ontario farmer. 👩‍🌾

Thank you UofG for allowing this opportunity to connect!

📅 Devin’s Market Snapshot 🏒 — Week of June 8th

1️⃣ Funds stay aggressive across grains
Managed money funds remain heavy sellers in corn, soybeans, and wheat, with ongoing liquidation keeping a firm bearish tone over the grain markets.

2️⃣ Weather takes center stage
Widespread rains are improving moisture across the Corn Belt and Ontario following strong planting progress, while traders closely watch early corn and soybean development.

3️⃣ Seasonal patterns reassert themselves
Corn, soybean, and wheat futures have now aligned with their 15‑year seasonal trends, breaking below key support lines. Markets will look to weather risks, geopolitical shifts, or USDA surprises to set a new trading range heading into summer.

📌 Devin’s Takeaway: Funds are leaning bearish, but weather and upcoming reports could quickly reshape the summer outlook.

📅 Devin’s Market Snapshot 🏒 — Week of June 1st

1️⃣ Managed money pressure on corn

Funds continue selling corn aggressively, adding bearish pressure and dragging grain prices lower despite generally supportive demand fundamentals.

2️⃣ Weather remains the dominant driver

Excellent U.S. planting progress is weighing on prices, but emerging drought concerns in the western Corn Belt could flip sentiment quickly if conditions worsen.

3️⃣ Seasonal caution into mid‑June

Grain markets often peak around mid‑June before trending lower into harvest, making this a key window to evaluate new‑crop marketing strategies.

📌 Devin’s Takeaway: Weather risk is rising just as seasonal pressure approaches — a good time to stay alert and review your forward plans.

🚛🌾 Road Safety Week Reminder from Great Lakes Grain 🌾🚛

Every day, our trucks travel thousands of kilometers to deliver the grain that keeps communities thriving. During Road Safety Week, we’re reminding everyone to share the road safely with large vehicles.

⚠️ Remember:
• Give trucks plenty of space — they need longer stopping distances
• Stay out of blind spots (if you can’t see the driver, they can’t see you)
• Be patient when passing — safety comes first
• Safety is a shared responsibility
