Description

This site provides direct access to norfolk southern bnsf and union pacific railroads and is the only site in iowa with this connectivity. This project will stabilize the organic grains and livestock feed supply chain by offering new access to markets on the east and west coasts for iowas organic grain farmers. This project will reduce reliance on imports for the coastal organic livestock markets and increase organic grain production in iowa. This project will benefit iowas organic corn and soybean farmers. By connecting these three critical railways in one location centrally located in the largest producing state of organic corn and soybeans the project will be a crucial step in sustaining the growth of domestic organic production by providing the infrastructure and market access needed.
