Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Effective December 19, 2018, Teucrium Trading, LLC, the Sponsor of
the Teucrium Commodity Trust, has elected to reduce the expense
ratio for the Teucrium Agricultural Fund (“TAGS” or the
“Fund”) from 0.48% to 0.19%. To achieve this reduction,
the Sponsor will increase the amount of fees and expenses that it
pays (or waives reimbursement for) on behalf of the Fund. The
Sponsor plans to continue to pay fees and expenses (or waive
reimbursement for such fees and expenses) in an amount necessary
for the expense ratio to remain at 0.19%, although as discussed in
the prospectus for the Fund, the Sponsor retains the discretion to
change the amount of fees and expenses that it pays (or waives
reimbursement for) at any time.
The reduction in the expense ratio from 0.48% to 0.19% is not
expected to materially change the expense ratio disclosed in the
prospectus, because that expense ratio was calculated based on
estimated expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2018.

Pursuant to the
