Jason Tews, Vice President of Grain & feed
This past spring, I shared our vision for expanding our Klossner location to better serve the needs of growers both now and in the years to come. Today, I’m excited to report that progress is well underway, with several key upgrades in the works.
Perhaps the most noticeable improvement will be the updated traffic flow, and the addition of a new scale and probe. Once construction is complete, trucks will enter from the far north end of the property, moving south through the new scale and probe, and then continuing through the existing elevator and scale before exiting on the south side of the property. We’re also exploring additional grain storage capacity at this site which will allow us to take on more volume.
This new setup isn’t just about efficiency—it’s about safety. Right now, during busy periods, trucks tend to back up onto the highway, creating a dangerous situation for both growers hauling grain and for anyone traveling on the highway. The safety of our employees, patrons, and community members has always been our top priority, and this project is focused on addressing that risk.

By reinvesting in this location, we’re not only raising the bar for safety standards, we’re also positioning Klossner as an even more attractive and efficient hub for handling grain. This makes it a better fit for current customers and helps us attract new business in the future.
As for our feed division, we continue to look for ways to keep up with industry standards and use technology to bring efficiency and increased safety to our feed mills. While there aren’t many new developments to report on the feed side at this time, we remain committed to meeting your needs. If you have specific questions or requests, don’t hesitate to give us a call—we’re here to help.
We’re excited to see the Klossner project come to life, and we appreciate your patience and support as we work to create a safer, more efficient facility for everyone.
