Maumee, Ohio — The Andersons Inc. Plant Nutrient Group on Sept. 5 announced expansion plans for its fertilizer distribution terminal at Wisconsin Rapids, Wisc. The expansion will add nearly 30,000 st of new storage space for dry fertilizer materials at the site, including potash, selected dry phosphates and nitrogen products, pelletized lime, and others, along with high speed rail receiving and truck load-out systems. The new bulk fertilizer building will provide inland storage for dry materials for the central sands area of Wisconsin. Construction will begin this fall, with completion expected in time for the spring 2013 planting season. “The investment is in direct alignment with our growth strategy and will strengthen our position in the marketplace by adding dry fertilizers for a more complete product offering,” said Bill Wolf, Plant Nutrient Group president. “The addition of this new fertilizer storage building broadens our product supply to area customers, and fills a need for product positioning for dry bulk fertilizer products.”
