If you trade grains in the US, national benchmarks only tell you part of the story. The price near your plant is what shapes your margin.
We’ve partnered with Barchart to bring deep, granular US grains data directly into the Vesper platform. State-level. County-level. Right where your team already works.
What’s new
Vesper customers with Grains data now get access to Barchart’s full US grains coverage inside the platform:
• US grains indices used across financial and physical markets
• State-level pricing across the major grain-producing regions
• County-level price insights for sourcing decisions that depend on geography
• Historical series you can chart, compare, and export alongside the rest of your Vesper data
In other words: the local pricing reality is now one click away, sitting next to your VPI benchmarks, AI forecasts, and cost models.
“Our customers don’t just want more data. They want the right data, at the right level of detail. Adding Barchart’s US grains coverage means a buyer in Minneapolis or a trader in Kansas City can make local decisions without leaving the platform they already use to run their global purchasing strategy.”
— Alexander Sterk – Founder of Vesper
Why Barchart
Barchart has been the reference standard for US commodity market data for decades. Pairing their depth in US grains with Vesper’s food and ag intelligence gives buyers localized pricing inside the workflow they already use to make decisions.
“Vesper has built a platform that food and ag professionals rely on to manage purchasing and risk,” said Barchart’s Head of Commodities, Andrew Ward. “By integrating our U.S. grains data into that environment, we’re making it easier for users to access the localized insights they need to better understand markets and execute more effectively.”
