Fall Crop Upgrade:ELEVATOR ADDS MORE STORAGE, DRYING CAPACITY AS FALL CROP VOLUME GROWS

摘要

When Express Grain Terminals LLC first built a rail loading grain terminal near Sidon, MS in 2007, the main reason was to capture fall crop bushels as both Mississippi Delta and upland growers switched from traditional Delta crops like rice and cottonto grain crops like corn, soybeans, and sorghum. Those crops typically outyield crops like rice in terms of bushels per acre.The terminal with its loop track became a particularly good destination for producers, allowing Express Grain to ship 100-car shuttles on the Canadian National with grain destined for export from Gulf terminals or domestically.
