Landus Cooperative has reversed its decision to build a feed mill adjacent to their grain facility in Yale, IA, reports Raccoon Valley Radio.
Landus representatives informed the Yale City Council at their November 3rd meeting that they weren’t continuing plans to open a 400,000-ton mill which was originally announced last February.
The mill was expected to add 30 jobs, with construction starting in spring of 2021 and becoming fully operational in 2022.
CEO Matt Carstens said their decision was influenced by a feed mill opening about six miles north of Yale in Cooper, and communication from feed customers about the distance between their operations and Yale.
