Lane is an agricultural economist and market analyst specializing in corn, soybean, and wheat markets. He delivers daily fundamental and technical commentary, hedge recommendations, and in depth analysis to over 8,000 agricultural producers and commercial clients. The 2025 leader of the eastern leg of the Pro Farmer Crop Tour, Lane combines on-the-ground field data with decades of historical context to help farmers and agribusinesses navigate volatile markets.
Previously Series 3 licensed, he brokered hedges and sold crop insurance at Silver Creek Commodities after trading overnight Globex sessions working as a junior trader at Pure Market Makers in Chicago, specializing in grain futures, spreads and options. A former Division I fullback for the University of Iowa (BBA Finance, 2019), Lane still applies the discipline, split-second decision-making, and leadership he learned on the field to the trading floor and the countryside. Outside of markets, he’s active in his church, trains Brazilian jiu-jitsu and spends fall mornings in duck blinds and deer stands.
