An independent Fertilizer Production Facility Feasibility Study evaluating a fertilizer production facility with on-site energy generation on a rural Ozark site in Green Forest, Arkansas.

GREEN FOREST, Arkansas — Wert-Berater, Inc., an independent feasibility study consulting firm serving lenders and government agencies since 1998, has completed a Fertilizer Production Facility Feasibility Study in Green Forest, Carroll County, Arkansas.
Wert-Berater served as independent feasibility consultant to the funding agency and the project underwriting file. Party names are withheld consistent with the confidential nature of underwriting and capital-advisory work; figures represent the project as evaluated at the study date.
A $244,098,940 production facility on a rural Arkansas site, of which $208,479,813 is program-allowable under the grant's fertilizer-scope screen. The study separated the two questions the agency actually has to answer — whether the fertilizer scope stands on its own, and whether the wider facility can be executed — and answered them independently.
Fertilizer production capacity with supporting on-site energy generation, together with the receiving, process, storage, and outbound logistics infrastructure the site requires.
$244,098,940 total project cost, of which $208,479,813 is program-allowable under the fertilizer-scope screen; the balance sits outside program scope and is carried by the sponsor.
The study priced execution risk explicitly rather than treating the facility as routine. Coverage was reported three ways to keep the record honest: 1.52× fixed-charge coverage against obligations that actually exist, an illustrative 2.52× against a note that does not yet, and roughly nine times coverage of the one recurring maintenance reserve. The favorable determination is conditioned on execution gates — scope conformance, phased commissioning, and entity conformance — not assumed away.
