Approved project summary
Distributed fertilizer manufacturing platform across three rural Upper Midwest communities
A $47,371,560 distributed fertilizer manufacturing platform anchored in one rural Minnesota community and extended to two more across Minnesota and Wisconsin, funded by a $19,685,780 federal share (41.56 percent) against a $27,685,780 applicant match (58.44 percent). The study asked the narrow question the program requires — not whether the platform is attractive, but whether it is feasible on its documented merits — and answered it on verified figures with sources equal to uses.
