Do you understand the real financial risk of your farming operation? Do you have a plan that ensures your long term success and profitability? Do you have true reasoning behind the decisions you make? If you hesitate when answering any of these questions, It might be time to visit with a specialist from Team Marketing Alliance

Team Marketing Alliance (TMA) is owned by four Central Kansas cooperatives: Mid Kansas Cooperative Association, Cooperative Grain and Supply, Nickerson Coop and Halstead Coop. Combined, these cooperatives account for 48 elevator facilities to handle bulk grain throughout the region. All merchandising, logistics, accounting, and e-commerce are handled through our offices located in Moundridge.

TMA’s grain marketing and crop insurance specialists assist producers with managing the risk their operation presents. Through our expertise in a constantly changing marketplace, TMA personnel provide tools that can allow a producer to do what they do best -- raise abundant crops!

TMA’s profit-based view helps producers make decisions based on the impact of long-term profitability rather than on short-term “windfalls”.  A key element in ensuring the success of an operation is realizing that all decisions should be accounted for. By managing market risk with a marketing plan that locks in profit when available, a producer can comfortably put themselves in the financial situation they desire.

TMA  has the expertise and knowledge along with access to industry-leading tools to help you  remove risk, lock in profit, and most importantly, boost your quality of life.   The three keys to a successful marketing plan are:

• An accurate account of production costs per acre
• An understanding of marketing tools available thru crop insurance and forward contracting
• Most importantly, a strategic decision making plan with profit goals in mind

If you are ready to take control of your operation today, contact your local TMA specialist and start taking the right steps towards your success.
