We listened: LGS app now live!

The Tyson LGS team would like to thank you for taking our survey and giving us several suggestions and feedback. Your responses are driving our current and future improvements. We know this business is a people business. That’s why we are committed to building resources and making it easier for you to sell your grain. We’ve listened to you and have started implementing changes – starting with the new Tyson LGS mobile app and a mobile friendly website.

Tyson LGS Mobile App
The LGS app lets you sell your corn directly to us, view bids to your local feed mill, and access contract information on your phone anytime, anywhere. With our new push notifications, you'll receive updates on your feed mill, contract status, and price changes. We are also working to provide the weekly market commentary from your LGS grain merchandisers on the app.

 Our app provides:
  • Prices: View cash bids for your local feed mill and futures quotes up to 18 months in advance.
  • Multiple Contract Options: We offer a variety of contract options for you to utilize.
  • Contract Details: Manage your open offers and view details on your contracts, including updated statuses on deliveries, transactions, and payments.
  • Feed Mill Information: Easily access your feed mill’s address, hours, trailer types, contact information and announcements.
Download the app on your Apple or Android device today.

Mobile friendly website
In addition to our mobile app, we’ve redesigned the mobile website to be more responsive to your device, making it easier to navigate your contracts, view bids, and sell corn. 

 These new resources give you plenty of options to communicate with us, but that doesn’t mean we’ll be backing away from the phones. Continue to call us at (844) 816-8579 if you prefer booking your corn over the phone.

We’re not done yet – there’s more to come
Try these improvements out and let us know what you think in the comments section. The LGS team is also implementing more changes you have suggested in the surveys, including increased farm and feed mill visits.

Seasonal demand for U.S. corn is expected to reach record levels in 2018-2019 –a bullish long-term factor for the corn market. Furthermore, with a renegotiated NAFTA confirmed this week, there is renewed confidence over more U.S.-China trade talks.
