EDA Invests $3.2 Million to Boost Grand Forks Agricultural Processing

The U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) announced a $3.2 million grant to Grand Forks to accommodate the expansion of a soybean processing facility and allow for new industrial development in the area. This award will be matched with $798,342 in local funds.

“North Dakota is an agriculture powerhouse, and our commodities rely on infrastructure networks to get our products to market,” said U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND). “This project adds value to the Grand Forks community, helping to improve the movement and processing of soybeans in the region, while boosting economic growth.”

What if you could better protect your soybean yield from a threat you may never see above ground?

Every year, we try to bring around 10 new trials to the PTI Farm, and a study of Nemasphere Soybeans is one of the new trials we've introduced this year. This new development from BASF is intended to provide an additional layer of protection against soybean cyst nematode (SCN).

We're excited to continue to monitor this, and we hope it's another tool growers can use to protect yield potential in the years ahead.
