  • Are you ready for propane season?
    Jun 24 2025

    Propane is an important energy source for farmers and ranchers to heat homes and buildings, dry crops and even power equipment. Global and U.S. propane markets are changing how buyers should think about contracting and storing propane.

    We talk with Tyler Kelly, who leads propane commodity trading for CHS. He discusses propane supply and demand trends and actions CHS has taken to remain a reliable supplier for owners and customers.

    Each month on It Takes a Co-op, we introduce you to people working in agriculture and energy, inside and outside CHS, whose ideas and insights will help you, and your cooperative, succeed.

  • Finding opportunity amid ag volatility
    Jun 4 2025

    Farmers and ranchers are no strangers to volatility and the cyclical nature of agriculture. Although it seems like there’s more uncertainty today than ever before, there are opportunities for producers who implement sound risk management and marketing strategies.

    We talk with Ken Zuckerberg with CHS Market Advisors, who describes the factors driving volatility in ag and global markets and how farmers can manage risk in the unsettled economic environment.

    Each month on It Takes a Co-op, we introduce you to people working in agriculture and energy, inside and outside CHS, whose ideas and insights will help you, and your cooperative, succeed.
