Commodity Brokerage Services for Farmers and Investors
At Midwest Market Solutions, we provide crop and livestock producers, agribusinesses, and market participants with dependable commodity brokerage and trading services designed to support disciplined decision-making in volatile markets. Our brokerage services are built on decades of experience, professional market insight, and a commitment to transparency at every stage of the trading process.
All trades are cleared through R.J. O’Brien & Associates, one of the nation’s oldest and most respected futures commission merchants. This relationship ensures our clients benefit from reliable execution, strong compliance standards, and access to global futures and options markets.
Whether you are a grain producer managing price risk, a livestock operator hedging feed costs, or an investor seeking exposure to agricultural markets, our brokerage team focuses on clear communication, disciplined execution, and strategies aligned with your broader financial or marketing objectives—not short-term speculation.
Futures and options trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors.
