Wrapping Up Our Summer Intern Spotlight 🌟 We've spent the summer celebrating the talented students who joined Ever.Ag, and we're wrapping up our intern spotlight series with two more interns who brought curiosity, fresh perspectives, and a passion for agriculture to their teams. Luke Altman: As a Dairy Producer Analyst Intern, Luke gained hands-on experience analyzing dairy markets and exploring how market data can help producers manage risk. He built models to predict dairy basis values, analyzed CME Spot and National Dairy Product Sales Report data, and developed Excel models to evaluate dairy insurance programs. Through these projects, Luke strengthened his skills in data analysis and agricultural risk management while gaining a deeper understanding of the role advisors play in helping dairy producers make informed decisions. Tyson Gehrke: As a Market Advisor Intern with the grain team in Platteville, Tyson combined his background in production agriculture with an interest in commodity markets and producer risk management. His work included creating weekly market updates, reviewing brokerage accounts, researching historical option strategies, and developing cost-of-production models for corn and soybeans. The experience gave Tyson a deeper understanding of commodity markets and the many factors that influence the decisions producers make. Thank you, Luke and Tyson, for your hard work and contributions this summer! It's been great to see all of our interns learn, grow, and make an impact across Ever.Ag. We wish you both the best as you continue your academic and professional journeys!

And as they expand into more value-added products, they're already working with Ever.Ag to extend those planning workflows.
