Matt Carstens, President and CEO of Landus and Conduit, emphasized the importance of reliable freight solutions for farmers. "We continue to listen to our farmers. It is crucial for them to have reliable freight solutions available year-round, and that is one of the many reasons we are acquiring DSM Advantage and launching Landus Advantage," said Carstens. "By keeping trucks moving, we will be able to support more industries and serve more farmers, continuing to grow and support our local Iowa community and beyond through reliable and cost-effective transportation."
