Landus, Iowa’s largest agricultural cooperative, announced on May 8 that it is expanding its full line of product and service offerings to farmers with Producers Cooperative Association (PCA), a regional co-op headquartered in Girard, Kan., that operates grain, agronomy, feed, farm store, and bulk fuel divisions from Girard and Missouri locations at Waco, Liberal, and Moundville.
“We’re excited to share the Landus offering with PCA farmers so they can access these new markets,” said Landus President and CEO Matt Carstens. “Downstream customers are asking for sustainably raised products, and we’re eager to partner with PCA farmers to show the consumer how important sustainability is.”
Landus said the collaboration will allow PCA member-owners to access Landus’ AcreEdge Performance Portfolio, Landus SkyScout, and other Landus products focused on sustainability. The relationship also aims to increase the opportunity for supplemental sources of income for PCA growers through downstream relations with processors and consumer packaged goods.
“The size and scale of Landus, paired with the local knowledge of our employees, makes for a great experience for PCA member-owners,” said PCA President and CEO Doug Graber. “The products and services that Landus offers truly make a difference, not only in the field, but also to the downstream customers that will buy the grower’s crop.”
