Full-service agricultural commodity brokerage backed by institutional-grade research.
Full-service execution on all major U.S. commodity exchanges through our clearing partner, R.J. O'Brien — the oldest independent FCM in the country. Personal broker relationships, not automated queues. Whether you're hedging 10,000 bushels or managing a multi-million-dollar commercial account, you'll work directly with experienced professionals who understand your operation.
Allendale's research department is the backbone of everything we do. Our proprietary Allendale Advisory Report — daily publications covering global grain and livestock markets — is distributed worldwide and cited by USDA, major wire services, and institutional traders. Complimentary with every open account.
We work with producers and commercial operations to build tailored hedging strategies that protect margins against price volatility. Our brokers understand farming — many come from agricultural backgrounds — and approach risk management as a partnership, not a transaction.
Elevators, ethanol plants, feedlots, and food companies rely on Allendale for specialized hedging and procurement programs. We combine deep fundamental research with practical execution to help commercial operations navigate the complexities of commodity price exposure.
Founded in 1914, R.J. O'Brien is the oldest and largest independent futures brokerage and clearing firm in the United States. As an Allendale client, your accounts are held and cleared through RJO — a founding member of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange with approximately $4 billion in client assets.
