Prospectus dated March 9, 2022 (as supplemented March 23, 2022)  
 
This supplement updates the prospectus of the Teucrium Wheat Fund dated March 9, 2022 (as supplemented March 23, 2022), with the following information. It should be read in its entirety and kept together with your prospectus for future reference.
  
1.
Principal Investment Risks of an Investment in the Fund. The disclosure in this section of the prospectus relating to the Fund's futures commission merchants is replaced in its entirety with the following:
 
                The Fund currently has two futures commission merchants ("FCMs") through which it buys and sells futures contracts. The recent volatility in the wheat futures market may lead one or both of the Fund's FCMs to impose risk mitigation procedures that could limit the Fund's investment in wheat futures contracts beyond the accountability and position limits imposed by futures contract exchanges as discussed herein. One of the FCMs has imposed a financial ceiling on initial margin that could change and become more or less restrictive on the Fund’s activities depending upon a variety of conditions beyond the Sponsor’s control.  If the Fund’s other current FCM were to impose position limits, or if any other FCM with which the Fund establishes a relationship in the future were to impose position limits, the Fund's ability to meet its investment objective could be negatively impacted.  The Fund continues to monitor and manage its existing relationships with its FCMs and will continue to seek additional relationships with FCMs as needed.

The Fund has replaced similar disclosure about the Fund's futures commission merchants under “Risks Associated with Investing Directly or Indirectly in Wheat” of the prospectus.
