Feed mills in Schleswig and Arcadia crush more than 6 million bushels of locally-grown corn annually. Value is added to corn, as FAC creates feed from it, and then sells the feed to livestock producers. Demand for feed is a big factor in FAC’s corn bid, making the co-op an independent marketing opportunity for area grain producers.
