    Dairy's Shifting Bottom Line: Component Strategy, Beef-on-Dairy Revenue, and the Interest Rate Outlook

    Compeer Director of Dairy Lori Fetzer hosts Corey Geiger, Lead Dairy Economist at CoBank and 2026 World Dairy Expo Industry Person of the Year, and Megan Roberts, Ag Economist at Compeer Financial, for a forward-looking conversation on what progressive dairy operations should be focused on over the next six to 18 months. Corey examines why protein has overtaken butterfat in milk check value, why beef-on-dairy revenue has become a major driver of farm profitability, and what the tightest heifer supply in years means for herd management and expansion planning. Megan breaks down the current interest rate environment and flags the upcoming USMCA review as an underappreciated risk to dairy export markets. The conversation also covers capital deployment strategy, aligning milk production with processor needs, and the role of technology and genomics in building long-term competitiveness.

Megan covers a newly signed executive order reducing agricultural equipment tariffs, the latest specialty crop assistance funding, and why the May WASDE's surprising new crop soybean projection and persistent inflation make a June Fed rate cut unlikely.

    Grain Marketing Fundamentals: Five Best Practices for Managing Risk During Planting Season

    Compeer Ag Economist Megan Roberts is joined by Jeff Kazin and Mike Rohlfsen, co-owners of Agris Academy and veteran grain traders with nearly 50 collective years at Cargill, along with Compeer Financial Officer Mark Cook to examine risk management strategies during one of farming's most operationally intense periods. Jeff and Mike walk through five foundational best practices that bring commercial trading discipline to farm marketing: understanding hyper-efficient futures markets and why producers should function as risk managers rather than speculators, knowing your position with specific yield projections instead of conservative estimates, separating futures and basis decisions to speak the language of merchandisers, calculating the true cost of carry including interest, shrink, opportunity cost, and psychological stress, and reading market structure to understand whether carry or inverse markets justify holding grain. The conversation covers why effective marketing plans begin at harvest rather than planting, how spring volatility creates opportunities for new crop pricing, and the merchandising principle of "stacking dimes"—making dozens of small improvements that add meaningful cents per bushel over time.
