2013 Construction In their continuing effort to make your co-op more efficient and increase grain-receiving speeds, Your Board of Directors has approved the construction of a new receiving location. This location will be constructed on our new property location but will be tied in to our existing elevator. This will allow us to increase receiving speeds at harvest and also tie the new receiving leg and pit into our existing bins incase of equipment failure at peak receiving times of the year. The new construction will include a 20,000 bushels per hour receiving pit, 20,000 bushels per hour leg, overhead conveyer and a 350,000 bu. Bunker for over flow grain at harvest. This will be phase one of our long range plans to add more grain storage. This expansion is planed to be completed before this year's harvest. With this addition we will then have a total of 45,000 bushels per hour of receiving speed at our peak harvest times. This is a continuation of our long-range plans to the new property we purchased 2 years ago Watch for progress pictures this year Every thing is on schedule for fall harvest 2013 soybean pile all in all smooth soybean harvest the added speed and space sure showed with the great yields Trucks coming and going soybeans 2013
