It's Harvest Season.

Harvest is upon us. Premier Cooperative’s Grain Division is prepared to receive what we hope to be a bountiful crop this year. We have spent a lot of time doing preventative maintenance to ensure quick unload times at each location. This will help ensure limited breakdowns during the busy harvest season.

As we begin harvest, our members can help us prepare. We receive several calls about incoming loads that can now be easily accessible through our mobile friendly login called POCKT. You can log into your phone or computer by using your current eagvantage login credentials. The new app gives you access to see contract balances, load information, settlement information and proof of yields. We currently apply member loads at the scale, giving you access to your weight tickets as soon as they are printed.

When receiving grain, we need to know the following information:

  • Who owns the grain?
  • Is the load to be split?
  • Do we need to include special field notes?
  • How to apply the load? (grain bank, priced, contract)

This will help speed up the process at the scale and during payment. If you are a new member looking to deliver grain please complete the new account application online prior to delivery. You can also contact your local cooperative to complete account set-up.
Any member looking to receive payments for grain quicker than a check are welcome to complete our direct deposit grain form found on our website, premiercooperative.com. For those members looking for on-farm pick up, we will operate the same as we did last year. Your advance notice is much appreciated when securing resources to help improve our logistics service. We look forward to a safe and successful harvest this fall.

As we finish out the year, most of you have completed a successful harvest, spending many hours in the combine or grain cart. During that time, you likely reflected on a few different things. The first thing being how your crop progressed from seed to harvest. You may have considered factors such as stands, emergence, early season weed control, insect impact, nutrient deficiencies, and nitrogen loss. During harvest, you might have noticed issues like rootworm damage, stalk quality, weeds, and disease pressure. The big question is whether these factors affected your yield and how to improve your crop management next year. There may be many answers to that question but one that we can offer is to contact your Premier Cooperative Agronomist. With training, field experience and technology our team has the knowledge and resources to help achieve your goals next year.

I’m writing this newsletter the week of Thanksgiving. I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving Day with family and friends. I spent last weekend sitting in my tree stand that I affectionately call the Iron Maiden. It isn’t named after the rock group but the medieval torture device. I didn’t get a deer, but I sure got a sore back.
