The Dawson Grain Coop Board of Directors has approved the construction of a new grain storage bin in 2021. This bin will be a match to the last bin we built. It will hold 554,000 bu. with a fill speed rate of 20,000 bu. per hour. Due to the large amount of grain we have been piling on the ground the last few years it was felt we needed to reduce our exposure to the weather. 

The bin will be built by J&D Construction of Montevideo, dirt work by J.Moen Enterprises of Boyd, and Electical by Gruwell electric of Dawson. Completion is scheduled for October 8th.
